Flying High

| Hot Air Balloon Rally Riverton, WY July 20, 2013 |
This year, the sky was a brilliant blue and cloudless. . .nearly perfect for hot-air balloons.
You may remember that I was disappointed that Humpty Dumpty did not fly last year, so I was delighted to see that he was back this year and that his feet actually left the ground.
Humpty Dumpty FLEW
and SOARED
and had LOTS of company. . .
even those that came from far, far, away!
That is such fun! We went to the Albuquerque balloon festival one year...amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! We ran into a balloon festival in England once and it was awesome. Occasionally we can see a few here, but there's nothing quite like watching them inflate the balloons and send them off. Loved your photos! Oh, and a belated happy birthday!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see Humpty and all his friends in the air this year.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby is crewing on a balloon team this weekend in New Jersey....it's their 31st year! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteHopefully Humpty had a soft landing.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of the balloons, Nancy. Gorgeous blue sky! Aren't the colors of the balloons a great sight in the sky!! Humpty Dumpty is sure cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! A hot air balloon ride at dawn is on my bucket list. Humpty Dumpty would have my vote if he was local.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures...thanks for sharing and that sky is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your photos, and the whimsy of some of those balloons. Hot air balloons make me smile every time I see them.
ReplyDeleteI know where that last balloon originated. :) Fun photos. We really ought to make a trip to Albuquerque for the festival sometime.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the big balloons!! I especially love the cute smile on the face of the alien. Makes you wonder what he is plotting.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks like so much fun! I totally need to plan a vacation around seeing that. g
ReplyDeleteThose balloons are great.
ReplyDeleteYay for Humpty! :)
