Most of the kites at the Redondo Beach Kite Festival were small ones. It was obvious that Dad had gone to the local kite store and bought a kite for the kids–although Dad was most often the person on the beach actually flying the kite.
There were, however, a few larger ones being flown in the strong, stiff wind by young men. Among the bigger kites was a large red-white-and-blue one which, appropriately, was being flown in Veterans Park adjacent to the beach.
There is also a big kite festival coming up in San Diego. I imagine there will be many of the spectacular large kites at that event. But I will not be there. Next weekend I’m going to the Orchid Show in Santa Barbara.
