How to make a morning FLY!!

Wednesday September 12/2012 How to make a morning fly!! Get up, have breakfast and then gather kites etc and head for the beach. Make sure it is a beautiful sunny day with just enough wind. Then get out your delta kite and get it up quickly and easily. The beautiful day draws you to the water so you go in and paddle around for awhile. You are a little wet so you decide to get out your new prisim kite and fly it while you dry off. It misbehaves a little but you consider it a challenge and you have fun with it. Next you get out the crazy box kite that you have never flown before. It has knotted strings and it is very complicated. You spend almost an hour figuring it out and assembling it. Then you finally get it to fly after several adjustments. You look at your watch and discover it is after one… you have made a morning fly!! That is how we spent our morning. We returned to the rig and had lunch before we headed for Astoria. It was an unbelievably day. We headed for the Astoria Column. It is a special monument made to commemorate to completion of the railroad. It is really a beautiful structure. We took a lot of pictures and then we went into the city. It is small but seems to have everything including three museums. We will have to return one day. We did some shopping, returned to camp, had another wiener roast and called it a day. Tomorrow early we will head north .We will spend Thursday night in Marysville and then back to Abbotsford and reality on Friday.
