The whole family gathered at Edisto for Christmas. It was damp outside but cozy inside. We enjoyed my mother, sister, son, daughter, granddaughter, and all extant spouses. You can click any of these little pictures to enlarge them. At risk of sounding sappy religious, I felt blessed by the good loving family fellowship.
Today, the day after, it was sunny wi
th a nice moderate breeze on the beach for kite recreation. Son James gave his Uncle Tom and Aunt Mary Garland a kite. It's a trainer kite at about a quarter scale of the type that people use to go kite boarding across the water. By practicing first with a trainer kite you can avoid those silly beginner errors with the full size version that we enjoy on You Tube where people slam into jetties or hard objects on the beach. What a hoot! Actually nobody thinks Tom and Mary will eventually start launching themselves into the sky over the water with the big kind. It just happens that the trainers are lots of fun just for dry land kite flying. James put a video of the kiting festivities on his blog.
