Kite camp started today.
Both of the kids received a Camp Manual thanks to My Best Kite.
When Carter asked me how much he had to read, I told him to only read what was interesting to him.
I found both of them still reading twenty minutes later.
They made a list of supplies we would need and then we headed to Wal-Mart with our checklist.
There were “3 Extremely Simple Kits For Adults Or Big Kids!” listed in their materials. Courtney decided to make the Simple Diamond Kite that she named
Ultra Star.
Carter made the Simple Delta Kite that he named 
Spartans.
So that left the Simple Sled Kite for me. I named it
Theme.
We are off to launch.
Sadly…this is as high as the Spartans flew today.
However,
the Ultra Star flew ultra high!
She used all 450 feet of it’s line.
Theme also flew…but not nearly as high as Ultra Star.
Carter appeased his sadness whipping the air with his spar (dowel). 
It makes a wonderful noise.

finally, I've been waiting for pix
I love the names of the kites! Corky and Carter look like they are having the time of their life. Like Carter said, some kites like different wind.
Corky, I am stunned at how high that kite flew--450 feet!?! Wow.
Carter, no poking eyes out please or wapping sis. :)
