High Hopes Adventures: October 2008
http://flynhgh31.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 20, 2008. Unfortunately, this is the last balloon rally of the year. Mother nature was less than accommodating throughout the weekend, only allowing us to fly Friday night and perform a field of fire on Saturday night. I was busy flying Friday night, so I didn't get any pictures. However, my passenger from the local newspaper took a few photos. I also was interviewed by one of the Sioux City TV. Stations on Sunday morning. Check out the interview here. Getting ready for the field of fire.

High Hopes Adventures: September 2008
http://flynhgh31.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 29, 2008. A good friend of mine came out to visit this past week. For the first few days, we hung around Sioux Falls visiting the Human Body Exhibit and the Redlin Museum. And even drug the balloon out for a flight. Thereafter, we spent much of the remainder of the week in the Black Hills experiencing much of what they have to offer. Bridal Falls in Spearfish Canyon. My sponsor, Prairie View Assisted Living was awesome! What is a visit to Creston. This is the motor oil entry.

Tuesday, September 8, 2009. Have had an incredible amount of butterflies flying through on their annual migration to Mexico. Below are a few pictures from my backyard. Also, have had a few flights here and there. Am working towards earning my commercial license. Below is a picture of a flight from the other morning. Thursday, September 3, 2009. Few more pics of Nationals in Battle Creek. Notice the baggie tails blown down wind-it was breezy.not just on the beach. Brad Craig's approach to the beach target.

High Hopes Adventures: August 2009
http://flynhgh31.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 20, 2009. A week or so ago, I was fortunate enough to see Green Day in concert, what an energy packed show! Wednesday, August 19, 2009. Nice flight Sat night. Here is my approach to the first target. I was fortunate enough to be flying with Jim Winker (hall of fame inductee) and his son in law Mike. Here is my drop on the first target. Here is my drop on the target Monday night. This does not count toward the overall competition but was a heck of a lot of fun! What a fun week!

Thursday, September 3, 2009. Few more pics of Nationals in Battle Creek. As I mentioned, the weather really stunk in Battle Creek. Here are a few pictures (I copied from Facebook) of the flight that I forgot to bring my camera on. You can see how marginal it really was.what you can't see is the gusty winds to boot.

High Hopes Adventures: Nationals
http://flynhgh31.blogspot.com/2009/09/nationals.html
Thursday, September 3, 2009. I traveled to Battle Creek MI last week to participate in the US Nationals. The weather was less than ideal, so out of the nine scheduled flights we flew three. On one of the flights I forgot my camera (and to be honest I really didn't think we were going to fly anyway). Below are a few of my pictures. Notice the baggie tails blown down wind-it was breezy.not just on the beach. Ken Walters approach on the 3rd target on Sunday morning. Brad Craig's approach to the beach target.
