Mabel & hubby Alexander Graham Bell
(ha - inventor of the phone married MaBel :)
My post-title comes from Bell's famous notebook ( actual page) where he talks about Watson and the first telephone call. As handy as that invention is, we're not talking about that part right now.
Instead, a Theme Thursday Bell quote:
'Don't keep forever on the public road, going only where others have gone, and following one after the other like sheep. Leave the beaten track occasionally...'
He took his own advice and began inventing kites.
...at age 60, & throughout the rest of his life.
*some of these lifted men off the ground easily
And some were made of silk, no less
Bell's adage means to me:
There are always new things to try.
So we'll never be bored.
Amen to that.
So we'll never be bored.
Amen to that.
Click this kite for a website that sells a few multi-faceted kites that are based on Bell's designs. Since I have no bell at home, instead I'll fly one to honor Barry's last chemo!Spring Fever, anyone? ;-)
