Up, Up and Away in Ravenna, Ohio

There's a balloon launch in Ravenna each year as part of their big town festival celebrating the toy balloon industry. Here's the web site. We went last year to the launch at it was a blast. We'll be going again this year and I highly recommend it for the whole family.

Here's some footage from the 2006 launch.



I recognized some of these bad boys from last year's launch. I noticed that they didn't have steering wheels though — what's up with that?
