"I can see your house from here!"
Kyle Gratz says that he can see your house from where he stands. This photo may not mean much, until you examine the next photo, taken from ground level - about 60 feet below Kyle.
Gratz was among nearly 20 volunteers who strung Christmas lights on five trees in the Bluffton Presbyterian Church yard on Saturday. Matt Ellerbrock took this photo and shares it with the Icon.
We aren't certain if the volunteers allowed Kyle to come back to earth. Next time you walk by the church, check to see if he's still up there.
Watch the Icon later today for lots of photos from Saturday.
