September 20, 2009, what can I say... it was another great day for ballooning in Perris,
CA. On this day we almost flew back to the launch field... not quite, but close!








August 2, 2009 started out very foggy. We did not expect to do anything other than
a tether, but then, it cleared up. We disconnected the lines for tethering, and took off for what turned out to be a
fun flight.












On June 13, 2009, we flew in the 2009 Sonoma County Hot Air Balloon Classic.
There were some small, low flying clouds that morning, and you can see some of the balloons somewhat above some of those clouds.
In addition to the photos, you should take the time to watch Mike's video production.
Mike Vandenberg has assembled a 9+ minute video of our adventures in Sonoma in 2009. View it here.




May 17, 2009 gave us a chance to not only have a fun balloon flight, but we also
had an opportunity to celebrate Larry Vandenberg's birthday.

















April 26, 2009 was a fun day in spite of the fact that the winds only allowed for
a relatively short (duration) flight.








April 12, 2009 was Easter Sunday, and on that day we completed our flight with a
landing on a residential street.














January 15, 2009 was our first balloon outing of the new year. It was different
in that EVERYONE who flew was a pilot... in addition to Susan and Clint, we had three pilots from Airborne Express out with
us. One of those was Steve Jayson, Clint's brother-in-law.
