Hot Air Balloons!
Last night was the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Grove City. The weather seemed absolutely lovely to me but was apparently a little windy for balloons, so they didn't launch, but they were still fun to see. We were entertained by a band called 'British Invasion' who played mostly Beatles covers and some Rolling Stones and Animals tunes. They were pretty good- and they even had groupies. Hee hee. 
Will's favorite part of the evening was "kicking dirt". The balloons were set up in the infield of a dirt horse racing track. We would say, "Do you want to go see the balloons?" and he would say, "No, I want to kick some more dirt." Kicking dirt seemed like a popular pastime for many of the children there.
After the sun set, there was a Balloon Glow where the balloon pilots light the propane burners and make the balloons glow. Beautiful!
