My granddaughters, Krista, Marisa and Alyssa, are counting the days, getting ready for their favorite annual Dan’s Papers event—the Kite Fly. Every year we pack a cooler with lots of juices and water, lunch and snacks and head to Sagg Main Beach for a day of fun that later in the day turns the sky into beautiful colors while it slowly gets flooded with all types of kites.
