Well, disappointment was all around us this morning. The wind was too strong for the big mass
ascension to take off. The mass ascension is when all or mostly all balloons rise at once. I was so sad. But there was enough entertainment around to change sadness into joy. We will go back over this afternoon for the Twilight Glow...the balloons light up but go nowhere. That should be amazing. Afterwards fireworks, yahoooooo. Love um!! Wore Tim out this morning. Me too, sort of. I cannot sleep anytime in the afternoon. I do good to sleep at night.
