Let's Go Fly A Kite...


It's an Easter / near-Easter tradition at our house.  A Spring kickoff.  And lots of fun.  The above kite was the star of the event.





My brother snapped the above of me with my kite.  I think this was just after we got it down from the apple tree.  My other brother kindly got it down for me.


He's very skilled.



But then this kite - remember? The star of the show? -







Ran out of string and...well...didn't come back.



Oops.

Now it's in a neighbor's tree, and we pass it every time we come back from town.




Nevertheless, it was a fun day and we're hoping to fly some more of these babies on Easter.


And here's a...um...spontaneous photo of me with braces.  :)

Have a happy Easter holiday.

He is Risen!

Easter is late enough this year that there's no snow on the ground. Snow always make kite flying a little more... challenging.
