    A note From Deejay

    Hi, The meetup is at a fantastic place. I used to treat my sons to a "balloon ride" as their graduation from elementary school........so I've done 3 balloon rides. I am not available Saturday, June 6th, until noon. Dj ***How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.***

    Fun festival. The balloon launch didn't happen exactly as planned and the balloon glow was a bust but with a little 're-focusing' I was able to find other good photo ops.
