One spring day we all took it out to fly it. I remember it was glorious in beauty and flight. In fact, a tree thought it was so beautiful, it had to have it. One of my small town memories is that half the town turned out along with both the fire department and power company to convince that tree to give the treasure back. With heroic efforts, the tree yielded and returned the kite to us. It was taken inside and hung to admire, never to fly free again.Jody Windushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17430726021676773507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-53430882193243551652011-04-28T09:57:40.219-05:002011-04-28T09:57:40.219-05:00Beautiful kites!
