I didnt think they were going to do it today cause of the wind/clouds so we went to the mall, thank God its across the street from the fair grounds..at 6:30 we were eating in the food court and I see balloons just a comming over the tree's..hurry eat! grab the camera I rememered to throw in my purse and outside we go LOL. after that we went over the fair ground where they did a "glow" at dusk..was totally cool!!! we didnt stay long, madison wasnt dressed for the weather lol. Here's a few pics I took.. Outside the mall: Madison at the fair grounds running the stadium seating
Balloons: I made this after I took pics of all the balloons in pieces, there were total of 30 balloons, this shows some. Glowing: Isnt it beautiful!
AWESOME! I actuallygot the rare opportunity to go oup in a Hot Air Balloon, back when I was doing a TV report for the college tv station. I had a camera on my shoulder and they let me in the basket for a 45 minute ride across town! I have no still shots but the edited video is fabulous! Yes, the burners are loud, but they only burn for a few seconds, then is it PEACE! Total PEACE. Like you are floating with the angels! I loved it. Highly recommend it!
They are beautiful pictures!!! There used to be a festival not too far from us every October, but I can't find any information on it, so I don't think it survived the first few years. It's sad, because it was really nice.
Melissa, those are wonderful pics. thanks so much for sharing.. your dd is a very pretty young lady..
Yes add that to the other 10,000+ reasons why i need a cell phone. I told you the other day it was the balloon festival...remember?! Love ya too. Thanks for the the compliments on Madison everyone, and for looking..we had a great time and are going to get books at the library this week on the balloons.
