Flying Saucer

It can get windy in Saratoga Springs. During a storm the other day (September 2007) it was up to 60 mph.

Normally we keep our trampoline staked down but... yeah... as you can see it was not on this particular day.

I am happy to report that is now back in it's appropriate position in the back yard and properly secured to the ground.

We're lucky, I guess, that our "flying saucer" didn't take down any cats, dogs, small children, or storage sheds that night. When I chased it down and drug it back to the photographed position, it was 9/10 of the way to the house in the background. Fortunately it didn't figure out how to "bounce" itself or I would likely have been pulling it off of someone's roof.
