You win the pithy comment of the day award, JVB.

It was a glorious day to celebrate America! We missed you.

We got there at 10:30 this AM. Parked at the Girl Scout HQ. and walked around till it got hot. If you didn't get there early, you couldn't get in late.

A lot more people than I expected showed up and was glad I waited it out.

Great job guys! The pics look awesome! I'm so happy that our Northern brothers/sisters did us southern folk down in Atlanta proud!

LOL! My Special Instrument Rating does not hold sway under windy conditions!

Now, for my next trick, I will fly, and Abner will prove that I can, indeed, fly!

(C'mon Abner -- show the one where I am in the air, expertly manning the burner, in sustained LTA flight!)

No. A lot of things going on at home for all concerned made it impossible to make the trip. Sounds like a great rally, but the frustration must have been terrible trying to get in.

You asked for it.

I was on the ground. Taxman's balloon was being hit by wind and he recovered nicely.

Sort of an instinctive reaction to man's most basic instinct: survival!

'Twere windy, wern't it?

Folks, you gotta trust me on this one -- if you ever get a chance to fly in a hot air balloon, take it. Most fun you will ever have with your clothes on!

Well, that certainly adds a different slant to the story. Good job!
