And that is what we did! Ben got it in his mind that he wanted to go fly a kite. We scoured the entire toy department at Walmart {twice} until we finally found the {one} kite available. This lucky parrot was ours for the taking.
Atop Mt. Trashmore, {yes} we climbed a pile of trash to fly our kite, and {yes} it is the tallest point in Va Beach, we launched our kite. And no, it doesn't stink.
We each took turns:

{Preston}
{Kate} {Who doesn't like a nice little action shot?}
In case you didn't notice, we are not fishing. We are flying our kite...with a fishing pole. I think at this point, Ben had taken the rod off of the reel, but it is tied onto fishing line, none the less.
It was a little windy. Nice for kite flying. Not nice for taking pictures.

ReplyDelete"When you send it flying up there

You can dance on the breeze
Over houses and trees
With your first holding tight
To the string of your kite"
