This is a Google Earth version of the track and should open in your local Google Earth. For more information or to install Google Earth on your system, go to Google Earth. Saturday was windy but Sunday has a good forecast. Rudi, Rhonda, and Scott are again my crew. And we also the only balloon this weekend. The inflation went quick and easy, Scott was my passenger, Rudi and Rhonda chased with Carol. The initial path was low and slow NE, but I had to climb for the nearby homes. I did drop to tree tops whenever possible to keep our speed down. At the Ice Rink on 111 I dropped low in the east side marsh. Did a slow reverse and wandered around the tree tops for a while, then climbed to move NE again. After crossing RT2 I started looking for landing sites. Came across a couple I could have gotten into with a quick drop, but we continued. Eventually could spot the baseball fields at RT27&2A. Down at tree top again we turned enough left to head for the CVS parking lot. Dry and easy access. Timelapse Video captured on a static mounted Sony HDR-AS100VR:
