Description

It's a gray and gloomy day here in Colorado, so I thought it would be nice to post something colorful and happy. What could possibly be more cheerful than a bunch of F#@&!#G balloons!
I dug this one from the archives. This is the first year since I've had this job, that I didn't make it to the balloon festival in Albiquerquee. I went three years in a row. This photo was from three years ago, when the weather was fantastic. The past two years, the weather has sucked and the festival was cancelled practically every day. I found that the Albuquerquey balloon festival without any balloons is pretty dull. Albaquirque is really quite ugly!
I know everyone was anxiously waiting for me to post a bunch of balloon photos this year, and it never happened. So... Here ya go. I shot something like 1600 photos of the festival that first year. There are PLENTY more in the archives.
