During Tyler and Samantha's baseball games on Thursday,
June 10th, two hot air balloons drifted near the fields. One of them floated
right over the fields, while the other one landed across the street from the
Karl Richter Campus building (my old high school), directly behind some portable
classrooms. After our games ended we drove near the landing site to check it
out. By this time the balloon was pretty much down and folded into a straight
line, but the kids wanted to check things out. Tyler and Sam helped carry the
balloon into the storage bag, and all of the kids were allowed into the basket.
It was a very cool experience for them!
