Kissing Bees
Carousel and Smokey Bear

Things have been so busy and exciting around here that I have not had time to write. Thursday was the beginning of the Special Shapes Balloons, which there had been quite a controversy about since some of them had been in China for several months and could not get released but all worked out. Thursday morning was a great weather day and we actually walked down on the launch field to see how they get the balloons ready to fly. It is amazing to see how they put them together, how many people it takes to get it done. We had to move around several times in order for something to launch. Later that afternoon, Bill Chapel, the pilot of the Smoky Bear Balloon came over and spoke to our group about flying the balloons. He was very interesting and has had many experiences both good and bad. After he left we went over to the park for the Chasers Club dinner and the "RodeoGlo" which was the shaped balloons all lined up and when it was just dusk they turned on the burners and the "glo" was great. Fireworks are always a part of the nightly activities. We are able to sit in the motorhome and watch them.Friday was another beautiful morning for flying, in fact probably the best we had. After the mass ascension I went to a New Mexico Arts and Craft Show and just rested some .
Saturday morning was another good show and then Donna and I went to shop a little, lunch, and then a nap. Later in the afternoon the group got together for a short review of our time here and then everyone did whatever they wanted too. Larry and I had some dinner in the coach and then watched the fireworks.
Things have been cancelled for this morning, Sunday, due to wind so we will be packing up very soon and heading on to another destination in New Mexico and on to Texas tomorrow.
Hoping to post pictures on when we get WI FI
