This
year the Lincoln Balloon Festival will
feature not one, not two, but THREE
special shape balloons. With the
festival a week and a few days away
those planning to attend will be able to
see Tom and Terry, a mischievous Cat and
Mouse duo on the ground and in the sky
along with Humpty Dumpty! Tom and Terry
are coming to Lincoln from Florida with
owner John Cavin.
|
Humpty
Dumpty will be piloted by Richard
Lawhorn of Louisville, Kentucky. The
three special shapes will be a part of a
total 30 hot air balloons that weather
permitting will participate in the
Friday and Saturday night launches and
glows as well as the Saturday morning
fly-in.
