Up, Up & Away...

 my beautiful balloon!!
Sunday, the hubs and I went to the
31st Annual QuickChek New Jersey Balloon Festival
 
We had a blast!!
I invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy the 7:30 a.m. view
in Readington, New Jersey.
 
 
 

 

 
 

 
 


It was cool, foggy and cloudy, not the best day for pictures,
but the perfect day for me to be outside to enjoy the festival.

    It's a parade of balloons! You got some great shots. Love the ones with balloons in the distance and close-up--great perspective. And Elvis is looking good. :-)

    You have so many fun adventures!!

    Hi Debbie... Aren't those things amazing, so many shapes, and comical ones !! What a show!! Thanks for sharing via camera and post!!
    There is an annual balloon festival in my area ever year coming up soon, but at $200.00 a ride I guess I won't pay that to have the hell scared out of me!!

    The Elvis balloon really cracked me up. Even though it was a cloudy day your photos are still gorgeous and so colorful. It must of been so exciting.

    It was a beautiful day to be sure. What fun to get to see all of that in person and hear all of the sounds. I love hearing the sound of the air as it goes in the balloons.
