Balloon Fiesta – Less Than A Month Away

If CBS Sunday Morning has a feature on the Balloon Fiesta – then it is not too soon to talk about it! Less than a month!

It is on many people’s bucket list because ballooning is so beautiful and a totally different experience. To go up in a balloon is the one thing we will get to flying.

But remember, the sport of hot air ballooning is a sport so it can be dangerous. The Texas crash recently, reminded us of that. Landing can be iffy! Especially when there is wind. Barbed wire fences are not great either!

This photo below is one of my favorites of “Crazy” Bill Douglas. He, along with Frank Bacon, have given me the love of ballooning in Albuquerque.
