Fourth of July Balloons








Gunnison, Colorado has some event planned for practically every week from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Last night's fireworks were impressive, especially for a small town. Today was also the final day of the hot air balloon festival. Unfortunately the first two days were either to humid or windless. So Friday they didn't get to fly. Saturday they tried, but ended up just bouncing from block to block, not really getting airborne. Today was great though. I got to Jorgensen Park in time to take photos of the balloons inflating and taking off. Of course the alien was the most popular. The colorful balloons make for very good photographs, even while on the ground.
