Friday at the airport -- Album 3

![Click on photos below to enlarge.]

All around the launch site for the balloons Friday night there were bales of straw for sitting on and tables and benches, as well as some pretty soft grass. Many folks brought their lawn chairs and just sat back and relaxed in the cool evening temperatures.

Does it get any better than this?  This gal has found a nice soft spot to lounge about and watch the balloons.

 

Tethered flights were very popular Friday night as a line stood waiting for a ride most of the evening.

 

Baby's first balloon fest!

A close encounter with Wally's tail.

 

Getting ready for that first wonderful bite!

And then the long-awaited glow.

Wally here is shining brightly. Perhaps it's his way of saying goodbye as the evening draws to a close.
