We left the Vineyard this year on a cloudy morning, with the promise of rain. That did make it easier, though I’m already looking forward to next year. (Photo taken August 26, 2013)

Today was a good day for flying our stunt kite, until we crashed it and broke the main spar. Fortunately, the fine folks at The Lazy Frog fixed us up with a replacement. (Photo taken August 23, 2013)

As is tradition, we played Disc Golf at the course on Martha’s Vineyard near the airport. Since the course is on public land, consumption of alcoholic beverages is strictly prohibited. (Photo taken August 20, 2013)
