Up in the Air





















(This last balloon is that of our Dr.'s nurse and her husband.) We all got up EARLY, and went to the morning's balloon launching. There were something like 36 balloons participating, and we were able to go among them. It's fun watching them be filled with air, and then the air being heated with hot gas flames. The kids loved it, as each balloon would levitate into the air. We all enjoyed this morning much more than last night. After the launching, Jim took us all out for breakfast. It was a fun time of visiting. A ride in a hot air balloon is one of the things on my "bucket list." I think it would be amazing to be up in the clouds, with the only sound....the swoosh of the flame. Someday.....
