On
Saturday evening, thousands of spectators gathered
at the Logan County Airport in hopes of seeing a hot
air balloon up close and personal. They were not
disappointed. Much to everyone’s delight the
weather, though iffy throughout the day, proved to
be good enough for a launch and a glow on Saturday
evening.
