| Up Up and Away |
I have returned from my mini-break. The balloon festival was lovely. The weather on Saturday was just perfect, and most of the balloons went up. It was crisp and cold as we traipsed across the wet grass of the airfield at around 6am on Saturday morning. The crews were laying their balloons out and starting to inflate and the sun wasn't even up yet.
We were looking for photo opportunities and we certainly came to the right place. So many beautiful shots that you had to remind yourself to look at the world through both your eyes sometimes too.
 
There were balloons of all shapes and sizes, but my favorites were the two "Little Bees." Not so little really at 110 feet high. I took lots of pictures of them, but somehow I missed getting any of them in the air. At least I did on Saturday. I haven't gotten Sunday's developed yet.
 
 
 
But we got some other really cool shots as well:
 So I had a lovely, colorful weekend. I got terribly spoiled. Lot's of "I said put your money back in your pocket." Even the drive up and back seemed to go fast because we listened to an audiobook. I have to admit, I am looking forward to this weekend, which will contain no hustle and absolutely no bustle. The past month has been crazy! If, by any chance, you'd like to see the rest of the photos, let me know and I'll share my Snapfish album with you. |
