The big kite field... note lamp poles!

Another shot of this nice facility.

Stuff popping up everywhere!

The PA tent between the two main fields.

Ron Gibian, never short for words!

Jim (back) and Ron Despojado.

The buggy field.

"Too Much Fun", flew all day!

Taking a short break.

Our little buddy Ben and his Nana visiting from England.

Dans Gecko was a big hit.

It just hovered arounf for awhile.

Even the candy drops were orderly!

I think the kids were having a good time!

OOPS! Damn it had to happen whit the shifty winds and all those lamps!

Within minutess help arrived!

We took some photos as they set up their equipment.

There's that Ron WITH a new hair do!!

Outriggers down.

Everyone had to tease me!

The boom starts it way up.

Fire woman Amanda Donavan climbed up the ladder and hooked herself on for a ride the rest of the way.

Closer and closer, go on, keep going...

O no! That's all the closer they can get it! They said they can reach up 115 feet....sigh!

Out came the hook as she tried to unhook the kite with a pole.

It came partially loose and tangled on yet another lamp!

I had to walk away and dry my eyes! Here's a long shot view of the process!

Uk-o I think thats a pole pruner he has!

They lopped it down and Jim holds the lines that once was the bridle!

The gave me back my bridles. No I have kite camo!

Down goes the boom.

I gave Amanda a small Chinese swallow kite for her help.

THANKS

Hook a line here....

But, DO NOT fly over by the lamp poles!

At the end of the day we all went to a burger joint.... where I watched every one eat.... I had to go to Mcdonalds for food! ANOTHER story!
