Go Fly A Kite

This afternoon, from 12:00 to 3:00, was the 4th Annual Hayden Kite Festival at Broadmoore Park (off Honeysuckle and Atlas). Those who participated were eligible to win prizes for best flier, largest kite, smallest kite, and most unique. We didn't stay for the ceremony, but we did stay long enough for Andrew and Ryan to get their kites up into the air. So, with the sun warming our upturned faces and a moderate wind blowing, it was a lovely afternoon. I never did get my pirate ship to fly, but I got to admire all the kites diving and fluttering over the park with their colorful tails streaming behind them.


Broadmoore Park is a flat, open, grassy field perfect for kite flying, and now that I know about it, maybe I'll return. So, on the next Saturday when the wind is blowing, look up into the sky and maybe you'll see my pirate ship sailing over the park.
