The great kite rescue

Our fantastic kite flying days had a tragic ending a month or so ago. Not to worry, Brandon came through for us! Makett and Tanzen were pretty traumatized when we had to leave our kite in the poison ivy covered tree it got stuck in. Brandon was determined to rescue it, so, armed with his rock climbing rope we headed back to the park.
The boys watched in breathless anticipation...the tension was palpable, could Daddy do it?

Brandon's Search and Rescue training paid off-- after several attempts, the kite was freed!

It was a joyous reunion.
Brandon paid dearly for this rescue...turns out the kite was in the tree long enough to get poison ivy, so Brandon had his fourth or fifth case of poison ivy since we've moved to Philly. What dedication!
