Balloon Rally

The final hoorah of the summer in Prosser, WA is the much anticipated and planned- for Balloon Rally. The RV Park has been entirely booked for months. It was to be a gala weekend at Wine Country RV Park with barbecue dinners, pancake breakfasts, music, prizes...and much wine, of course! We were busy Workampers for a few days!

Who knew that hot air balloons launch at daylight? On Friday, I awoke to see them floating by my bedroom window. We watched the remainder from the Bighorn's back window in the comfort of our recliners while sipping our delicious morning Carrabassett Coffee. On Saturday, however, we agreed to join our Workamper group to get the best view of the balloons as they launched, touched down on the river and then up and over the bridge. It did require walking into town at dawn, but we had Cinnabons and bubbles in hand to celebrate the occasion and the end of the season.

The balloons were spectacular! It was a perfectly clear morning, and the colorful balloons filled the sky. What a fitting end to a great summer!
