Bye Bye 2017 Balloon Fiesta

Posted on October 21, 2017October 23, 2017by Sunny Weathers
Farewell 2017 Balloon Fiesta

Last Sunday we sucked in our slides, uncovered our wheels and transformed the RV back into a bus.  Once roadworthy, we left a trail of good-byes and hugs for our friends as we departed 2017 Balloon Fiesta.  As a farewell to the kaleidoscope of lighter than air characters who performed overhead daily for us here, […]

Fiesta Treasures

During the week of Fiesta, balloon activities dominate my days.  But I can never overlook the many other wonderful people and attractions that encompass me while I work.  One of the greatest treasures here are my fellow volunteers.  With them I share great destinations, volunteering joys and RV success or disaster stories.  Here are just […]

Posted on October 1, 2017by Sunny Weathers
Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta

Balloon Fiesta arrives in a week.  As that event rushes toward us, we squeeze in training and Albuquerque excursions as furiously as we can.  The guys fight a battle with excessive rain that seems determined to keep them from liming the RV field.  Without lime markings to designate spaces, RV parking will become pandemonium.  Mud, […]
