Let's Go Fly a Kite!
I love spring weather! The days start to get a little bit longer and a little bit warmer. It is so hard to not want to be outside all day long. And of course, the wind picks up enough to try out a bit of kite flying.
Normally, we would buy a cheap plastic kite at the store, but this year, we decided to go to the hobby shop and buy a sturdy, nylon kite. In the days after we bought the kite, it rained a lot, so it was over a week before we were able to get out to fly it.
Shan and I rode our bikes with Christian in the bike trailer and Ian rode his motorcycle to the local high school parking lot one evening. The wind was good at first, but quickly died off as the sun began to set. But we still tried our best to get the kite to fly.
It did fly a bit, but not as much as we would have liked. But it was a great way to spend a warm, spring night and we all had a lot of fun!
