Balloon Breakfast at the Museum

October 12, 2018 DanCooksey 5 Comments

Warning: Long post with lots of pictures.

Friday morning, Betty and I went to have an early (5:30 AM) breakfast the the Balloon Museum which is on the South end of the balloon field. After breakfast we watched the mass ascension from the museum upper balcony. As you will see, they came our way and several landed right in front of us. A good morning.

What a vantage point! There can never be too many balloon pictures. I wondered how long before Christ got his own balloon.

  If/when you and Molly come back for the balloons we can consider doing this.

  If you and Bill can come one year, this is what we can do. Have a nice, warm breakfast and then watch from the comfort of the balloon museum.
