We arrived in Natchez yesterday in time for Chris and I to glow our balloons at the kickoff event. We met a few long time friends, Ken and Patty and Al and Julie who helped us on inflation. Maggie, as always, was delighted to enroll new members in her fan club! Looking forward to great weather, lots of flights and lots of fun.

A big cold front moved through Natchez Saturday and with it too much wind to fly. We woke this morning to clear skies and calm winds. Chris and I were both able to fly and I took my sponsors’ grandson, Garret and his dad. Garret was a fabulous first time passenger and I hope it was the first of many flights. Her granddaughter, Maggie and Miss Maggie fell in love as you can see in the picture. Sadly we had to say goodbye to Ginger, her family, Natchez, William and Ashley, and the Iowa crew as Maggie and I continued our trip to St George Island. We look forward to being in Natchez again next year!
