Jim, a fellow artist and photographer. I was favored with an "All Access" pass to the 2013 Chester County Balloon Festival and I had a great time. It was a big event with music, games and of course hot air balloons! I ended up hanging with the crew of "Patriot" -- the tallest flying balloon in the world today. It is an homage to the Space Shuttle program and it is in fact a huge Space Shuttle shapped balloon that is 40% larger than the actual shuttle is! I got some nice video interviews with the owner, ground crew and pilot and I'll be making a short film of it all -- but I have a lot of work to do first.
