Flying has long been something that has fascinated man-kind for hundreds of years.
While commercial and scientific air-travel is very common these days AND my kids have flown thousands of miles on planes - apparently that just is not good enough!



So while going to our 'home beach' (Sandy Hill, pictured above) yesterday, the insane people of this family (i.e. everyone but me) decided it would be fun to try to fly... over water that is about 2 ft deep and full of sharp rocks.

So without further a due, here a step by step on how to teach your kids to fly/turn your kids into adrenaline junkies:

1. Tell them what you are about to attempt is perfectly safe.

2. No matter what happens, ignore the advice of your spouse.

3. Ask the other people in the group to stay at a safe distance.
(which seems contradictory to me seeing how you just told them it was perfectly safe in number 1 above)
(never mind, step number 2 said to ignore any advice)

3. Grab a kid of your choice firmly.

4. TOSS!






For those of you taking bets on who would get hurt by this exercise, believe it or not, nobody actually did.......
...unless you count the only person who wasn't involved in those flying lessons - me.
While I did sustain significant injuries yesterday from a (very) late-night attempt to fly leaving Sprocka's Soul Kitchen, those shall not be discussed here. A deal is a deal!
But boy do I love to hear the words: "Honey, is there any way you could NOT blog this?" (snicker....ouch....laughing hurts)
