Austin Kite Festival was this weekend, so I joined in. The wind was great and there was a kite flyer about every 10 feet. Kids, parents, everybody.

I don't think I've ever seen more than a handful of kites being flown together at one time.

If you tried flying a kite here this weekend, you might as well have kissed that baby good bye; it would have been gone in the great blue yonder.
