Airborne



For SkyWatch today I give you flight. These were taken last Saturday at the Green Grove Gardens Balloonfest, on the outskirts of Greencastle, Pa. The sky's were a bit overcast and the winds a bit stronger than I'm sure they would have liked but to sit this close and see these unfold, literally, right in front of you was amazing. And the last picture is just a hint of what the evenings Balloon Glow had in store. Picture 1 is Fleck Folly4 out of Holland, NJ, picture 2 is Kaleidoscope out of Quakertown, Pa. and picture 3 is Valley Express out of Woodstock, Va. (Yesterday's Sir Prize was out of Holland, Pa.)
Please, please, please click on the SkyWatch icon on the right sidebar and see what bloggers around the world are seeing today. You won't be disappointed.

These shots bring back happy memories of a balloon trip in Turkey. It is so amazing to go up in a balloon.
Have a great weekend.
