Eyes to The Skies

This is a working weekend for us! Actually, it is a fun weekend, but what we are doing is hard work. Our friend from Kentucky is participating in the Lisle, Illinois balloon fest and we are part of his crew. Tom Steinbock is the owner of this beautiful hot air balloon. He participates in many Midwest balloon festivals and also participates in the well-known hot air balloon festival down in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Last night's affair was a glow--balloons stay on the ground and when it gets dark, all the balloons start their burners at the same time. An awesome sight, to be sure. An actual launch was scheduled for this morning and again for tomorrow morning--weather permitting. If you are not an early bird, "Glows" are scheduled again for this evening and tomorrow evening. If you are in the area and want to see an awesome sight, come visit us in Lisle's Eyes to The Skies Festival.
