Hot Air Balloon Races

September in Reno just kept getting better and better. One weekend they had The Great Reno Balloon Races. We awoke while it was still dark, and got to the field a first light, just as the first balloon lifted off of the ground. It was amazing to be standing in the field and watching all the balloons lift off all around us. Our good friend Roger came with us. Dad even got to help get a balloon off of the ground! My favorites were the Bumble Bees. It was a great morning. Next year we’ve already decided to go even earlier to see the Glow Show (when some take off in the dark). If you ever get the chance I highly recommend it.
