Jeff Sullivan invited us to join him for a photowalk at a hot air balloon event at a lake in the Tahoe National Forest. This is an unofficial event where balloon teams meet each other for some fun and social time. Another goal is to give their support personnel a chance to fly, since they can’t during festivals as paying customers get priority. As a lucky strike, on the second day, the Empty Pockets Balloon Team asked me if I wanted to fly. Heck, yes and I really enjoyed the ride!
This was a great weekend! Big thanks to Jeff Sullivan for asking us to come along and Jeff Haliczer from Empty Pockets Balloon Team to let me fly with him!
Now I really want to see a big balloon festival like the one in Albuquerque.

Daniel, you have an amazing talent. Thank you for capturing and sharing the beauty we experienced flying at the Reservoir. Cheers!
David, it was so cool to see you guys flying up there!
Awesome shots. thanks for joining the fun. . . I fly up there nearly every weekend when there is not snow on the ground unless I am at events.
Do an event in Gallup, NM the first weekend in December and it is awesome, for photos. Nearly 200 balloons flying the red rocks, Red Rock Balloon Rally.
Be safe and have fun,
Jeff
Thank you, Jeff. This was so much fun. I’ll look into going to Gallup.
