​BIG OH! BALLOONS

“May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,” ...Bob Dylan

We'll post here after our flights and get togethers...Stay tuned!

Last flight of 2013...a great flight!

Well, you just can't sneak up on the cows! They were out to watch our last flight of 2013. It was awesome! They were impressed...

Our new friends, Carolina and Harrison, were visiting from out of town, checking out colleges around here — we hope you go for Davidson! — and scheduled a balloon flight over the holidays. The landing at Chris and Melody's lovely home, just a couple miles away, was soft and sweet...next time, I hope they are home!

All in all, a great time with great people.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! COME FLY WITH US IN 2014!

    Kristie and Charles have been ballooning, it seems like forever, but really only since 1981. This blog is a running log of fun flights and adventures in and around the Greater Cool Spring International Balloon Port and Space Museum, our home. Enjoy!
