Thomas Dworzak visits Joe Biden’s home town.


Joe Biden’s childhood home is not too big, not too small, a nondescript home on a tree-lined street. Normal.

The Steamtown Marath on was being run Sunday. The finish line is right in downtown Scranton.

Scranton felt a little European, since it has fairly old buildings, a big hotel and people walking around, something you don’t see too much in America. There is nothing very spectacular in Scranton, nothing very horrible either. It is a middle-ground place, a nice little town.

I live in W. PA/Pittsburgh and have always been intrigued by the amount of folks who display the American flag...not just during election cycles but 365 days a year. I've been shooting a photo essay on such displays of patriotism and seeing this frame has me thinking I need to lurk around car dealerships more often!
