Saw this news headline about a women in Vermont that got caught in a tree while kite surfing… Darn Kite eating tree

The Burlington Free Press writes

“Dangling 30 feet up in a Burlington tree Thursday, Claire Whelan looked out at sun-splashed Lake Champlain and wondered how the heck she wound up there.

The full story can be read on the Burlington Free Press online edition.
