About Valparaiso's Flint Lake

Here it is early in the year 2010 and I just found some amazing photos of hot air balloons in Valparaiso, Indiana way back from 1910. Can you imagine that? One hundred years of Hot Air Balloons - yesterday and today.

As I was looking for other pictures of downtown Valparaiso, Indiana, I found a picture of Flint Lake and Hot Air Balloons in 1910. That's just down the street of where I now live! Amazing! I've got to tell you that I was very tempted to just use that picture on my post but I'm afraid that may be considered using someone else's property. So instead I have supplied a link to the wonderful hot air balloon picture in my home town.

It's not unusual to see Hot Air Balloons flying overhead in Valparaiso, Indiana. In fact, the Kiwanis Club sponsors an Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival every September in conjunction with our Popcorn Festival. I just had not stopped to think that people in Valpo have been enjoying hot air balloons for at least 100 years.

Oh, the majesty of hot air balloons - yesterday and today. I cannot wait for our Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival in September in Valparaiso, Indiana.
