CHTM Goes Ballooning!

On Sunday October 6th, 40 CHTM members (including the honorary junior variety) came on a trip to see the Balloon Glow at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. Burritos, gyros and funnel cakes were consumed in quantity, and we had a good time! Enjoy the photos.

The balloons rose as the sun set - including the cat, and the monster - tongues of flame just roared hot
air at first, then as darkness fell they made the balloons glow like giant Chinese lanterns. Southwest cows
 
were silhouetted in the night. When the wind got up the balloons gave way to a firework display, watched by CHTMers.
