Welcome to the 2006 Illinois River Balloonfest at Tahlequah.
Something new this year, click on the image below for a time lapse of the course being built.
 
We've got rocks, holes and a new ravine to play in.
 
Not a lot to say here, just line up the trucks and let's go PLAY!
 
Oops.  Ken managed to flop the big beast in one of the holes.
 
Thanks to everyone that came out. 
Special thanks to Hamid for all his hard work getting this all set up.  Thanks to Larry for helping out Hamid and myself with course construction supervision.  And, thanks to our camera folks for all the great shots.
See everyone next year!
