    Up at 6AM for the Dawn Patrol. The first balloons to go up and test the wind. Then the mass ascension of hundreds of balloons. Then more balloons coming into the field and trying to drop beanbags on a target or throw a ring over a pole. All that was over by 9AM. It was in the 30's this morning. We bundled up. High 60's later in the day.
    We had lunch at El Pinto with the whole rally group. Then we visited the Balloon Museum. There is still Balloon Glow and fireworks tonight!
