Aug 15th at St.Paul





I had so much fun selling kites at the Indian Association of Minnesota's 15th August event. It was a bit too windy for the Indian paper kites, but people were nostalgic to have the kites available. I felt so good. The firkis (thread) ran out, so people who arrived after 3.30 p.m. had no thread left to fly. Next year I need to get more threads and firkis.

I also did not tie kanni to the kites, which was a problem as most folks did not know how to do that. I helped gladly, but was swamped as I was the only one at the stall. Anyway the joy that I experienced seeing that sparkle in other people'e eyes washed away all my fatigue. Loved it, thank you IAM and let's do this again next year.
