Abilene, Kansas J.S. and S.W. Aber |
Although the day was warm and mostly sunny, remnants of snow attested to lingering winter conditions. Some ground cover was just beginning to green up, but most of the lawn was still brown and deciduous trees were bare. We started with a south wind, which shifted to the southwest, and gusts swirled around trees near the surface, which made for difficult flying conditions. The kite line dipped into tree branches a couple of times, but did not get caught.
