This was the Michigan Challenge Balloonfest this weekend. It was a little too windy Friday night, so only a few chose to launch. Saturday was beautiful. Hot, but not too hot and all the balloons went up. The air was very still, so they just kind of hung there. Some went down in the next field over as they didn't catch and good air. The picture below is an area of the field where some of the balloons were laid out waiting to be filled with air.
Unfortunately it was either too windy or there were storms in the surrounding area. They didn't fly Sunday night. So that is it until next year. We will occasionally see one or two up in the air during the summer months. Such fun.
Some of our family made it out to spend some time with us. Youngest grandson was thrilled with the snakeskin (shed) and the small animal skull I had found for him.
