August 29, 2004 - Sunday - AM Flight Flight

10+ Hot Air Balloons launched from Norton Park in Plainville, CT during the 20th Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival. Marginal weather and wind kept most pilots on the ground. Chris took our little 69K balloon to a back field and gave some kids a close up view of a balloon and gave Brian an introduction to flying a Hot Air Balloon.

Got Photos from this day? E-mail them to us and we'll put them up on this photo page too.
