Let's go fly a kite...up to the highest height...

Friday at cub scouts we had a kite derby. They boys made their kites out of newspaper and brown paper bags. Some of them did better than others. Yesterday Russell helped Michael make a different kite out of a plastic garbage bag to see if it would fly any better.

Russell is adjusting the tail - not sure if it's too light or too heavy. Kite flying is a science experiment I am finding out! The boys loved it though.

Holding it for Michael while waiting for the perfect breeze. It came in spurts - which makes for a not so fun kite flying experience - but the anticipation of a wind coming keeps them at it.

It came! Michael is flying his kite! (Even though the thrill lasted for a few seconds - until the next wind came along!)

Donovan even made himself a kite from Michael's book. The wind isn't helping him much.

Let's go fly a kite...

Up to the highest height...

Let's go.....

Fly a kite!
