It’s the weekend. Today I have balloons for you, photographed at The Great Reno Balloon Race in Nevada. I hope you’re looking up.
Until tomorrow,

We’ve only been to two balloon launches — the same week — in Albuquerque. But I was fascinated by the color, the hard work, and the magic lift-off with cheers from the crowd. Oh, to do it again!

Very cool. I’ve never seen more than one or two at a time. And while folks tend to think splashes of color when they think balloons, I like the silhouette picture the best.
