AM Flight in Farmington Valley, CT with Willie and Gary. -
Our passengers joined Cindy and I and 5 other Hot Air Balloons for a southerly
flight down the Farmington Valley. We all took off from the Farmington Balloon
Port and headed towards Cheshire. The sky was a deep blue and without clouds.
The only weather was a thin layer of patchy ground fog over low lying fields
that made for a dramatic morning launch. Pictures on this page are from Gary,
Cindy, Mike and Mark.
