On
Friday evening Seth Goodman with assistance from Lincoln
Mayor Tracy Welch, prepared to snip the ribbon on the
Balloons Over 66 weekend. Goodman was joined in behind
the ribbon by more than 30 pilots of hot air balloons
that will grace our skies in Logan County. Also looking
in was Tina Simpson of the Comfort Inn Motel in Lincoln,
where all the pilots are staying.
After the cut pilots and
crews headed out to their designated lift-off points. At
the Campus View address, the pond on the property of
Kevin and Peggy Bateman made for a beautiful photo op.
Weather permitting, balloons will grace our skies
Saturday evening, and a glow is set for 8 p.m. at the
Lincoln Park District.
