Of course, I should give credit to Charles Schultz for the kite eating
tree idea but I've so often seen pathetic looking kites hanging sad and
frayed and bent high up in a tree. Here are some tree/kite pictures:

The most amazing sight I've seen, though, was in Allahabad, India. It
was about 4:00 pm and suddenly the cloudless sky was filled with tiny
square kites. They were clearly cheap things that kids got just for the
purpose of fighting in the skies. We watched hundreds of kites dancing,
lines crossing, and then the losing kite plunging to the ground as the
winner went on to spar with another.

Excuse my longwindedness. Happy kiteflying.
