Hope you have a super trip!

And, before you go, pray for a few clouds floating in the sky. They add so much to photographs.

Good idea but I've been sending all of my clouds to Tim lately.

If you get down into New Mexico a balloon ride is pretty cool.

You have to blow up your own balloon

The view is great

Lots of rich people in New Mexico

and you never know where you will land. The guy in the red hat didn't
expect us in his yard.

That's on my wife's 'Want to do' list.

Albuquerque is a great place to balloon

One of my wife's sisters lives there. More reason to stop for a visit.

I am sure she knows all about it then. There is a big balloon park
north of town on 25.
We went from there but where you land depends on the wind and your
propane supply. The guy who's yard we landed in seemed to be pretty
good natured about it.

I just checked for RV sites for the October festival. Not much left.
