Would you like to ride in a beautiful
balloon? I didn't cause I have an issue with heights but the Saturday of Labor day weekend my hubby and I got up early and went
to the Color of the skies hot air balloon festival,
( one of my nieces did a post about it last year) and I decided that I was going to go and test my new camera out.
This hot air balloon festival benefits Children's Hospital of Central California it is one of many fundraising events that they have in the past few years I have done the Change Bandit program where they have put on a country concert for participants.
The reason this hospital does this is so that they are able to provide high quality comprehensive health care services to children regardless of their ability to pay. a few years ago my daughter had knee surgery there and the staff was so wonderful. I will always support this hospital in some way.
this was the balloon that kicked it all off. what an amazing thing they let you get right up to the balloon we were quite impressed by watching all the work that goes into getting these beautiful flying machines in the air
there were a total of 13 balloons I believe perhaps a few more I took
quite a bit of photos to many to post!
this was one of my favorites
I hope you enjoyed the ride
I know my camera and I did.
