Balloon glow

We went to the Balloon Glow in Middletown, Ohio tonight. This is an event that has been going on for the last seven years but this is the first time we've gone. It was a fun night. We got there about 7:30 when the balloons were taking off. A while later they came back and set up and prepared for the glow. There was a band playing on stage (not a very good one) but the kids didn't seem to mind. There was skydivers, which were cool. The balloons were neat to watch being inflated and then glowing as the nightime sky arrived. It was a cool night in July and we were all decked out in jeans and jackets. We got to ride a bus into the event, down an airport runway. We walked on the way back to the car and what a long walk that was! It was a great family night out. Much better than seeing the little teeny tiny specks of balloons which we have seen from our house in years past. I got some beautiful pictures and they are in the attached album.
