The Kite Festival was Great!

Were you there??? Leda and I went to this year's Annual Kite Festival at Greenhill Park in Salem, Virginia. We met a lot of wonderful people, saw incredibly beautiful kites, learned about kite-making, and even got some info - like...

Kite flying is an art AND a sport, and that there is actually a kite museum and Hall of Fame for kites (in the state of Washington)!!!

This event was hosted by The Salem-Roanoke County Chamber of Commerce, and presented by the Richmond Air Force Kite Club and the American Kite Flyers Association. Music during the event was provided by the American Kite Flyers Association as well. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and we were able to shoot just about everything that went on during the day... it was hard to edit out stuff because every minute of it was FUN!!

Well, we'll be back to bring you more events in the Roanoke Valley really soon. It's been a lovely Spring so far and - oh, yes - there are many, many things to do out there!! Come back and join us for more...
