'Old Glory' Back in Top Form in Venice Beach

The tattered and torn U.S. flag that had been flying above Venice Beach at Windward Plaza has been replaced and there's a new California flag, too.

"Old Glory" earlier this year looked anything but glorious, but city officials were aware of the problem and working to fix it. A staffer at the Venice Beach Recreation Center said maintenance crews put the flags up about a week ago.

The U.S. and California flags were unfurled and flapping in a mild breeze Tuesday under sunny skies at Venice Beach.
