Kites - as an art form

Wanted to pass this one on. A friend of mine sent a link to me for a video of a guy flying kites. Three kites. All at once. He doesn’t just put them up and watch them either. He flies them as though the kites are dancing. It’s all set to music. From Kitelife.com, here’s Ray Bethell, the multiple kite World Champion record holder. The photography is by Robert Holbrook.

Bethell is 79 years young.

Get a cup and sit back with the speakers on. This will make you smile all the way to the end of the show.

 

Thanks Dennis.

In other Christmas news…

This is a good way to laugh at Christmas and enjoy the music.

Hooker Does it Again

James Hooker is an avid songwriter. He’s also a conservative entertainer as his website, Homemade Sin, notes. My kind of guy. He’s written several songs over time that I really like and you should take a listen to this - “Hanging Out With the Boys” (been around a while).

His latest, “The Canyons I Knew Well”, is on his site and on You Tube. Go to his site - if you want a You Tube video there’s a link to it.

You’ll also note a post about the latest You Tube insult to conservatives on his site here. There’s also a link to “Hanging Out With the Boys” too.

Give a listen.
