Not Just Full of Hot Air

Saturday night I got to help set up the balloon again! Nearly lost my shirt from the fans and received a near tan on the legs with the propane/burners this time.

Since I helped 'work' two different sections of the balloon (Friday night I was near the top of the balloon, Saturday night I was at the mouth of the balloon, hence being nearly topless with tan legs), I thought helping inflate the balloon two days in a row was pretty damn cool..but it wasn't nearly as cool as hearing:

"Rachel, Paul, get in the basket-we're going up"

HUH? Is there another Rachel you're talking to?

Can I just say it was the coolest thing I've done in Delaware so far (waaaay better than riding a penny farthing). Here are some very random pictures from last night...
