I was driving the Capri, so I threw the
camera at Greg.... The following photos are his.

Barry landed in a tight spot. A perfect
landing even though we were sharing space with an adjacent garage.
My photos again. |
One end of America One was hanging over the garage by about 15 feet. No problem.
|
 A closer look... Hey, Postage Stamp Radowski! Barry can do it too! |
 Some of the residents. Please note the lady in the window on the third row ... |
 The lady in the window was kind enough to send down a towel so we wouldn't get any grease on the balloon from the parking lot. Who says chivalry is dead? |
 Another inside view of America One. |
|
Good thing Barry landed when he did... The other balloons just stopped over Springfield. But, they don't have as much to worry about. They are easier to land. |

I'm still not sure what is going on with these two. The guy on the right seemed very angry with us. He was the only one. He was insisting to me that we had a malfunction of the burners and that many small children were trapped under the balloon... The camera guy was a bit nicer, he smiled at me and just kept filming. No malfunction, no missing kids. I hope the guy on the right learns to have fun someday. |
 This is the beautiful lady from the 2nd floor. We had a very nice talk and I hope she sends me the pics of our landing from her vantage point on the 2nd floor. What a great lady. She is also welcome to come crew for the rest of the weekend. I never did get her name. |
