It Is Balloon!

The Great Falls Balloon Festival comes around this time every year and I recall my title line from the series F-Troop that aired in the mid 60's. The character Chief Wild Eagle would yell "It is Balloon" quite often when he saw a hot air balloon.

We travel to Maine quite often during the summer months but I have only managed to get to the Great Falls Balloon Festival once to see them successfully launch a sky full of balloons. This weekend the forecast is looking good so if you're in Maine swing into the Lewiston / Auburn area at 6am or 6pm to catch the launch or spend a few hours wandering around the Great Falls Balloon Festival.
