Kits with Heidi

When i was over at my sister and brother-in-law's place in Kits a few months ago we spent the day walking around vancouver in the beautiful weather...wish this weather would return. so this is me and cleo posing by some carved trees that are in Kits park. oh and if you are wondering what that red yarn is that is attached to the leash...that is cleo hand-made harness that we created as i had forgotten her harness. i think over the 5 years i have had her i have bought 10 already. i seem to loose them everywhere. so now i have one in my car...one upstairs by the key...one in her stuff...and i think one other one somewhere. whenever i loose them, i get another one...and then i find the one i lost in the first place. its just a vicious cycle...but i digress.

anyway, this old man was there flying kites...they were amazing. he said that he has being doing this for like 16 years and he went to some competitions where he would fly like 20 or more kites at a time. i dont know how he does this...i mean i struggle with only one kite. it was just spectacular...and he landed one right near heidi and i... the tail actually hit us.

all separate kites, and they arent getting tangled...just amazing.

oh yes...the canadian geese. a whole group or gaggle or flock...whatever you call them came across our path as we were walking. cleo was quite excited to see them...luckily we had our home-made harness to restrain her. haha.
