They Said, "Go Fly a Kite!" So We Did
Claudia and Doug invited a bunch of us to their place to fly kites.
Here James assembles his shark mouth kite.
Despite the package testimonials, the airplane kite took a while to get aloft.
But it finally made it.
James flies his kite.
Linda flies her kite; the inset shows the little "rainbow unicorn" kite itself.
Aubrey, shown here on the truck bed, showed a definite talent for kite flying...
...alas, Charlie Brown syndrome struck and that tree ate her kite.
The Goulds also brought their kites...
...but as always when the "Rocket Boys" gather, there are also rockets.
Jessie prefers rockets to kites and here helps Bill launch one.
James launches a "Snitch," his flying saucer...while Alexander and Jessie enjoy the show.
Xander and Bill launch a stretched Alpha.
James launches the Estes cruise missile.
