It's so fun watching all the hot air balloons being set up and launching. The best part is they have the SPAM van there that gives out free samples. You should have seen the constant line of people all wanting to try it. I think there are a lot of secret SPAM admirers out there.

My favorite part is the balloon glow. Did you happen to catch that? Did you take a balloon ride? Utterly jawdropping experience. Especially if you're a first-timer. Champagne and dirt!
Is Kodak still the sponsor for this event?

Wells Fargo seemed to be the sponsor this year -- one of their balloons was the one that lifted the American flag for the Star Spangled Banner each day. I know they were the sponsor for the Special Shape Rodeo days and the Glowdeos at night. . . . This is our 4th time going. We always go with different friends and it's fun to watch their faces as they see the balloons. . . . I have a fear of heights but wouldn't pass up the opportunity if it was ever affordable to go up in one. . . . We did get to the balloon museum and it was nice -- wish we had more time there. Oh, and a breakfast burrito every morning -- yum!
