The
Friday night launch from the Bateman residence at the
2021 Balloons Over 66 weekend was picturesque. Shadows
fell early on the lot bordered with thick woodland,
making for some fantastic light versus dark photos of
the event.
On Saturday, the east
side of the Logan County Courthouse Square in Lincoln
was a great place to spend time during the Balloons Over
66 weekend.
With a new Art show offering for the weekend came an
opportunity for the community to participate in creating
a commemorative painting honoring the 20th anniversary
of September 11, 2001.
A little further south, Dock Dog competitions were in
full swing in the afternoon on Saturday. Smooth orator
Erik Sabin kept everyone’s attention as the talented
dogs dove into a large pool of water competing in a
number of skill categories. Technical assistant Ivan
Diaz coordinated the delightful event.
Although some might say
it was smokin' hot in Lincoln on Friday and Saturday,
the best part of that phrase for many would be the word
smokin'. Smoking meat was the name of the game Saturday
as the Backyard Barbecue Contests brought together
amateur grillers to compete for the best smoked
ribs and chicken.
In the end, one group stood out. The Up from the Pitts
BBQ team won first place in ribs, third place in chicken
and Grand Champion overall.
