Thank you, Steven and Frank. The New Jersey Festival of Ballooning takes place at a small airport three miles from our home. For the part three years, I have had other commitments on the weekend of the Festival, which draws 50,000 visitors. This Saturday, I was able to arrive at 6:30 AM for the morning inflation and mass ascension. That was fortunate, as the weather Saturday evening and Sunday has been unfavorable for these events. I was however disappointed as the low cloud cover and turbulent air made them cancel the sky diving exhibition, after I managed to secure a position at the fence surrounding the drop zone.
The festival also feature balloon rides, airplane rides, carnival rides, music concerts, food of all imaginable varieties, and stands selling everything from hats and framed butterflies to hot tubs, solar panels and basement finishing systems. It is one of the major event of this area, along with the 4H Fair that takes place two miles from my house in the other direction in mid August. Both are fun events.
