It's Ballooning Season!
Here in Idaho, it's almost time for the Spirit of Boise! It's a balloon festival that runs from the Wednesday before Labor Day through the weekend. Pilots from all over the country come to fly out of Ann Morrison Park.
My father-in-law became a hot air balloon pilot because he enjoyed crewing with other pilots. Crewing for hot air balloon pilots is a lot of fun.
The best part is that after all of the fun of getting the balloon out, inflating it, chasing it down, then packing it up, we tailgate. We typically bring food and champagne, hang out and have a great time.
I took time off to help out. It's a lot of fun seeing all of the families' faces light up when they see all of the balloons. On Friday night they prepare a special night glow show for everyone. It's a lot of coffee-fueled, sleep-deprived mornings, but it's a lot of fun!
If you get the chance to go up in a hot air balloon or crew for one, don't hesitate!

Very interesting picture my friend
I haven't seen hot air balloons before..
It's definitely part of my bucket list to see and possibly ride in one...🔥

That's pretty cool. We have a festival here in the fall as well. I've never been to it, but occasionally you can see the balloons floating over the next town over. I know they have a big festival down in Arizona or New Mexico every year too. I wonder if it's many of the same people who travel to all of these small and large festivals.

Thank you! 😁
I confess that this is something I have never done, going into one of those balloons, but if one day I have the opportunity to get close and go in, I won't hesitate, even though I'm terrified of heights lol, I'm looking for some new adventures.
