Hello Ken and to all those that have NOT been to this event. In a previous life I was there without knowing a balloon festival was in town, my hotel room was almost twice what normal was. Only to discover all those balloons from around the WORLD were in town. Its a site to behold in person, pictures, tv can not describe or give the feeling of being there. To see 300 plus balloons lift off at the same time float towards the mountains and catch an up draft and return is an amazing site to see. And from I've read here you got the BEST area for viewing this event. Just thinking how awesome its was I gotta go back count me in.
to any and everyone i've offended (most everyone):
i blame the Big Patron...
still on road in beautiful downdown barstow, california with the str8's (str8strm), the time's (timemachine) and miss bam (bamcamper). hope to arrive home in the next few days. thank gawd for friends...
did i say what an interesting rally this was?
very nice folks
no sleep
mucho ta-lill-ya
hemi conditioned roads
Ummmm correction - 750 balloons taking off at one time
This is really great - I wasn't sure how it would work with short notice, but we have ourselves a rally !!! So I'll let y'all know the details within the next week ie the money stuff....

mr. ken j,
with a little extra time we could'a had us a airstream convention (over 26 units). on another note, please add to your now bulging and dog eared list, two equines, lightning 'n thunder.
richard & jan, please photoshop my special airstream optional balloon arrivial & departure harness only available on certain '05 FFA CCD's.

Reason: this isn't dog eared, it's llama eared Dee Oh Gee...
Sign me up too, it sounds like a great event and a superb location from which to watch everyone get high. And with all that hot air, I'll fit right in. I look forward to meeting other FCU members there.

mr. wee,
i just LOVE hot air, getting high and a PERSONALITY, a big one. did i mention americana? that too...
this will be my first visit to the big ballon party. thanks for creating this opportunity. this is exciting. cheers 2air'
mr. 2air,
i've been following your career for some time now. my personality has bonded w/ yours, just at great distance. channeling now...
anyways, this is a "FIESTA", not a "party".
kinda like the difference between a Airstream "rally" vs. a Airstream "convention". think scale, magnitude, or even multi magitudes of mind blowing proportions.
Thats cool you'll be coming through - do you want to install an a/c?
Ken
I'm always ready for a little RV work.....even in the middle of the desert........
