Gone Ballooning!!

My dad and his lady friend, Kathy, go hot air ballooning almost every weekend in the summer! They help set them up and chase them down! We had the opportunity to help crew these balloons in driggs over this 4th weekend! SO FUN!! It is amazing and such a cool experience! We spent 3 nights and 4 days in little ole' driggs idaho ballooning, went to jackson, hit bear world on the way home and had a world famous mullberry (spelled wrong im sure) shake! Here are some pics of our adventure!WARNING...PICTURE OVERLOAD!
