Yes, every thing is well, just getting older. Look forward to the animals returning to the canyon.

I am a huge fan of balloons - I have posted a couple or three threads myself - but your Day two on the River is spectacular!! The rest are very good too -but really like that one. Thank you so much for sharing! Well done!

Last year they never took to the air all 3 days. At least this year they got up 2 out of 3! Only one touched down on the river on the first day but on day 2 several of them made the photographers happy!


Excellent photos!

A day without wind in the Tri-cities is a rarity indeed. (I lived there for a few years some years ago and son still lives in Kennewick so we visit often.)

They have a great Photography Club there! I travel each month from Yakima to the meetings! Well worth the trip too!

Don't wait to long! I got mine two years ago and I still get a thrill every time I think about the ride!

all fantastic. The first two appear to be taken from inside the balloon. How did you manage that?

Am I missing something or were some of these taken from inside the balloon as the burner was operating? If so you are braver than me.

These are not easy to get! You have to know the pilot and not even then will they all let you get in where I was!
