1984-1995 Balloonatic Days

SOFT LANDINGS, WILLIAM They're now officially off and running, but it wasn't windy at all that morning. You can always tell a calm day by how many takeoff shots you get -- the higher the wind speed the fewer the shots.

THE FLIGHT OF THE TWO DOUGS This flight started off okay, but soon misadventure was in the air -- and in the water! The other Doug (Doug Two) is Doug Mallon, one of my co-workers at Super Tex.
