Here come the octopi, over the hill!

This is taken at the Berkeley Kite Festival a fun and almost surreal event. There were dog kites, shark kites, beaver kites, fish kites, stingray kites... you name it. There were also a lot of more abstract "art" kites.

Kater and I will be in Pittsburgh, Pa. for ten days; there will be a family gathering and my sister's memorial. It will be bittersweet, to put it simply.
Southwestern Pa. will offer many blip opportunities; I'll post some when we get back if not before.
