Today "Chimply" the hot air balloon owned by James Bowman of Oklahoma City visited our school. This weekend is BalloonFest in our town. We watched the owners blow up the balloon from the ground. We saw our principal Mrs. Hathcoat go up in the balloon. She did not fly away. We we stood next to the balloon. We felt the hot air from the hot burners. We took a picture of us next to it. It weighed 600-700 pounds. We saw the trailer that it is carried in. The basket was big enough to carry four people. It was AWESOME!! Some of us are planning on going this weekend to see other balloons. Have a nice weekend!!! P.S. We had fun writing this together!Friday, August 17, 2007

ReplyDeleteI loved reading your story about the hot-air balloon! The balloon ride was fun and I especially enjoyed seeing all of you from up in the air.

The hot air balloon was cool! But it was really hot near it. We wish we all could have gotten to ride in it.
