I met Edgebinder on the beach at Weymouth and had my picture taken with him by Harrier, but it wont be posted for about a week.
I dont know where he is headed for next

Neither do I......
But for the planning:
We'll have a special kitefestival in Vercorin (Switzerland), on top of a mountain (Crêt-du-midi, 2336m above sea level). It will take place on 19./20. July.
@ Mr. Edgebinder
If you like, I could take you up the mountain and let you and your buddy have a close look to the swiss Alps !

I want to see Marlas tattoo. I'll be in Grinnell this weekend, when you see me ask about my tattoo. It is original art work from the collection of Vi Berg.
Also, this damn Edgebinder, what a free loader. Anyway is his name Edgebinder or is it Ed Gebinder?

Looks like a couple of Prog's Banner/Genki kites leading edge to leading edge.  Double inspiration?
I like them!

And it was a true pleasure to meet you Don. Shame the weather turned and we had thunder all day but Harrier got some pictures from a nice TV company's cherry picker before the rains came.
It sure was fun to see Harrier at work. A British film company had asked him if he could fly an HD Video camera over the festival for an ariel view show they are making. Practice flights on Saturday went well with good results. Sunday was a wash out but I may get on TV yet 
You can see some more of Harrier's pics of the festival HERE
Been doing the tourist bit around Dorset as well with Harrier and his good lady.
Seen some Roman Mosaics in Dorchester (Wow, can't believe how old they are) and a really old Abbey at Cerne and a wierd chalk drawing of a nekked giant and..... look at the pics HERE
