Me and my girl went twice to those "Hot air balloon" events. One was in Letchworth State Park, which was to have 25 balloonists, the other was at Niagara University College and had 50 to celebrate 50 years. Problem was, the weather at Letchworth, there was a thunder storm a few miles away so they didn't go up!!! Not around the corner for that trip.
The other one at Niagara university, was a little too windy!!! So they didn't go up either. Last time driving all those miles to only hear that they aren't going up. Been there done that.....never again.
