NIGHT GLOWDEO

This is the last of the fireworks, that was a lucky break for me to catch. I thought it turned out great.
This is Thursday night and all the balloons inflate, then sit there and when prompted light up their burners. It is quite impressive
I got these out of order as you can guess. But caught Tweety Bird just as they fired the burner

This has been just the best fun. Today, Saturday ,it was too windy for them to inflate. The decision was made about 6:30 not to fly. As you may have heard, one pilot was killed and his co-pilot injured yesterday. The wind drove them into some power lines and the basket caught fire. Very tragic.
Now this afternoon the rain has come, so our balloon fest is probably over. It has been worth every penny to come and witness this whole thing. We leave tomorrow morning for AR. , so won't post for awhile, unless something exciting happens.
