Hot Air Balloons.
Welcome!  Bienvenue!  Velkommen! Добро пожаловать!

This website is a tribuite to an interest of mine. Like most of my interests, I don't spend nearly enough time on it to be an expert. (following the mantra "jack of all trades, master of none"). However, in the last six months, I have extensively Google-Translated the internet, talked to some old timers, choked down some math and farted out some numbers, and experimented in the essence of any adolescent male.

Below is  a summary of what I have seen and done.
