Hot Air and Old Age

To celebrate my 44th birthday (yeah, yeah, I ain't no spring chicken) I'm dragging my family up to Aroostook County for the Crown of Maine Hot Air Balloon Festival. We'll be camping for two nights (yeah, in a tent), and I'll be attempting to photograph with husband and two kids in tow on a fairground. Should be interesting... Weather is scheduled to be nice on Friday afternoon and Saturday, but we may be packing up in the rain on Sunday as tropical storm Irene makes her way north. Cross your fingers that not only does the sun stay out on Saturday, but the wind speeds are below 9 knots (or the balloonists won't take off.) If I get anything good, I'll definitely show it off here!
