Hot Air Balloon Trip

By Dick Ambrose.

 Wanted to let you know about a spur-of-the-moment trip I had in October with the three "Wilderness Network" clubs down here. 

I found a company in early October that does this sort of thing in the Asheville, NC area and thought it might be of interest to the guys in these clubs. 

I had always wanted to try it...and apparently others did also. 

I had 21 on the trip...in four balloons. 

It was the first balloon trip for any of the southeastern gay sports clubs and the largest trip yet for our outfitter. 

I would have posted it on the GO website, but everything was happening so fast (from posting to trip time in little over a month), and the numbers of people signing up kept growing...that I had trouble coordinating things with the numbers I had. 

Anyway, I plan to do another trip in the spring down here in Georgia...closer to Atlanta, and I'll post this one with GO.

I've loaded my pictures from the October Halloween weekend trip balloon trip onto the following website:  http://public.fotki.com/DickA/balloon_trip/.  Once you go to the site, you can click the tab marked "slide show", for viewing.
