My one-year-old son and I kept strolling around our neighborhood during the quarantine. One day, we discovered that a bunch of houses on one street suddenly started displaying small US flags in their yards. This piece features “Little Snoopy,” who traveled across the country from my friend’s uncle’s house to become my son’s friend as well as the legendary folk song about travelers who are looking for America.
