Colorado Balloon Classic

Colorado Balloon Classic

Labor Day weekend in Colorado Springs brings with it an annual event that that residents and tourists alike celebrate much more than the end of summer; The Colorado Balloon Classic. The festival begins on Saturday and runs through Monday with over 100 hot air balloons taking off from downtown’s Memorial Park in two waves each morning at sunrise. Residents throughout the city can watch as the skies are filled with the beautiful colors against the early morning sunrise. Some residents are even treated to balloons floating over their houses and hearing the soft rumble of the balloon’s burner as the pilot greets them with a “hello” or a hand wave.

The Festival continues each day with music, entertainment, and concessions at Memorial Park before the belloons reinflate, while tethered to the ground, at sunset for the evening’s “glow.” As the balloons are illuminated in the dark by the flames of the burners, the shimmering and dancing balloons dazzle the onlookers and remind them what a great city Colorado Springs is to live in.

If you’re thinking of moving to Colorado Springs to enjoy the annual Colorado Balloon Classic and the beautiful scenery, contact a Colorado Springs Real Estate Agent to start looking at houses today!

Great Post! Where do you find your ideas? I find a few looking at other articles and my own day to day problems. Lately I have been trying random word searches on Google, you can find random words here, http://watchout4snakes.com (no relation). Just frame the search like this Powered by WordPress Random Word. It will bring up other peoples blogs to get ideas from. This post was a little longer then I was planning on, good luck!

Thanks! I try to base my ideas around current events, but the holidays through me for a tailspin this year. It was a good kind of tailspin, but my blogging has been lagging.

I was just chatting with my coworker about this the other day over lunch . Don’t remember how we landed on the subject really, they brought it up. I do recall eating a amazing fruit salad with cranberries on it. I digress…
