Battle Moutain

Rancho Bernardo, CA

Battle Mountain, which looms 400 feet northwest above my home in Rancho Bernardo commemorates the largest battle, San Pasqual, on US soil during the Mexican American War. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_San_Pasqual

To my surprise today I saw a flag fluttering next to the cross. I limbered up my 70-200 f/2.8 with 2x extender to get more glass on the scene.. It turns out there are two flags: the US Flag and a Chargers Flag!

A Chargers flag? That seems a bit odd to me. I can understand a US flag and the cross....but a Chargers' flag? Sheesh!
