Idaho Kite Festival

Braving the odds / Defying Idaho weather

The photo was taken during the First Idaho State Kite Festival 2007.

Guest kite instructor Tom Tinney told us 6 feet of line would give us bragging rights, so we all made sure we put up a kite even though there was ankle-deep snow on the flying field. This was Tom's mighty effort.

FREE E-Book!

I'm referring to Simplest Dowel Kites, my popular kite-making download. It's a printable PDF file. Make a diamond, delta or sled. Each kite is capable of flying hundreds of feet up for hours on end.

Could you do me just a small favor though?
