let’s go fly a kite . . .

January 10, 2010


As we left to run some errands in town, I debated whether or not to take my camera along. Thinking out loud, I told Jen I’d just leave it for now, anticipating a practicalities-only sort of outing.
Later, dropping her off at her place as the sun was setting, she hollered back at me before going inside: “Get your camera,” she advised, “and go down to the lake!” I did as she said and was ever so grateful to her for the tip. What I found was the most lovely sight–a solitary skater with a kite/parachute . . . a stunning sight, as he glided to and fro on the ice, the wind lifting, and dropping, his yellow kite behind as he went.
So maybe winter’s not all bad :-)
