Balloon Fiesta 2010

The Annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. This year, due to engagements in Durango Colorado, I skipped the opening weekend October 2nd and 3rd. I was able though to catch the final Morning Glow, and Farewell Mass Ascension of October 10th. Southward Winds this morning prevented the famous "Albuquerque Box" from forming over the field, so the balloons quickly drifted towards ABQ and out of sight. Even with these conditions, the event was nonetheless spectacular.
