Check it out! The amazing US Flag Balloon (owned and operated by FReepers abner and victim of circumstance) made the front page of yesterday's Washington Times. A miniature version of the WT front page containing the beautiful photo is posted in #3.

Link for another photo taken yesterday of the US Flag Balloon by USA Today is at post #13. Link for Yahoo News Photos is in #21.

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

WooHoo! Hands down, this is the best Flag Day coverage. The photos are breathtaking!

p.s. Do we have a catchy name for VOC's shadow dance?

Excellent! Will you guys be at the NJ balloon festival this year? (Is that the one that the caption is referring to in July?)

Hmmm... That's a tough one... But while we try to figure out what to name the 'shadow dance'.... I do have a little film of him doing the bunny dance... Bunny dance... .
