After running into issues with El Dorado County being a corrupt and nasty place to do business we have finally found a great spot to fly. The private and gated community below us LOVES the balloon! We just did a two day tether event for them and we have been welcomed into the community with open arms.

I have been flying special shape balloons since 1989. My love for shapes has made it such that I am always looking at items thinking how cool they would look flying overhead. I am always considering my next shape. Or my first believe it or not. What many people don't know about me is that I have only owned 3 shapes to this point. The Little Bees and the Eagle.
