Mr. Wonderful and I had always gone to the Limonera Hot Air Balloon festival, so when I decided that we were gonna go to the Snowmass Balloon Festival; I assumed it would be similar. Boy was I wrong!
It was so much more than I ever could have hoped for! We came into the valley and this is what we saw. 
I mean REALLY??? How cool is this??
I figured that they balloons would be inflated and tethered but to round the corner & see this was truely amazing!!
The balloons filled the valley & touched down on the golf course (I'm sure it was a sight for some startled golfers!)
The aspen trees haven't started to change much yet, the rain I'm sure has something to do with that.
The mountains & stormy skies were a perfect backdrop for this event!
This was totally worth getting up before the sun to see this. We can't wait to go next year!!
(Thank you iphone for panorama shots!)
