Hot Air Balloons and Happy 4th of July!

This morning when I got up and went outside, there was an armada of hot air balloons south of town. I grabbed my camera and took a few photos. Here is the best one:

This evening I plan on walking down to Jorgenson Park for the fireworks. I'll take some photos and post them to the blog. Also, tomorrow morning is the Cattlemen Days parade and I'll take some photos of that as well. I am also planning to go fishing at Needlecreek Reservoir or make the trip up to Taylor Reservoir. I checked out Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Limited. I liked this film more than his other work, Anderson is an acquired taste and after slightly gagging on the hipster pretension of some of his other films, The Darjeeling Limited felt more grounded and the scenes surrounding the drowned child was touching. Also, I reflected on my own relationships I have with my own brothers, all four of them, and how comfortable I feel around them after growing up together. As adults, our lives are richer and more fulfilling than when we were growing up in Palisade Colorado.

Happy 4th of July!
