There is only one "The Dude"...

I got there at 6:30 AM, to get the balloons in the morning light. Well... weather was bad... it was dark, cloudy, and very windy. The flights were cancelled, and they started sending people home around 8 AM.
While I did not get any balloon pictures, I did attempt to be "The Dude" (Patrick) and for the first time, I photographed people doing their thing.
Hopefully tonight's balloons' parade will be on.

Great shots Chip, I think Patrick's got some competition. BTW, please don't start taking pictures of birds.
