Oh yeah! You'd be starting already. Just pray to God that you never get Fred for a pilot :S.

By the way, did you find an electronic device called a "ScanGaugeII" in the balloon truck (assuming you're with the SaskTel balloon)? I think I left it in there from last summer and I would LOVE to be able to find it again. Try to have fun this summer :)

The videocamera I used was a simply Hi8 camera I found at a pawn shop for $70. It lasted me 3 years. Now I'm looking for one with a hard drive only.

I'd say check out the internet for ballooning companies. There's probably lots of choose from in the USA.

Did you just not love being in our little town of Lampman. Even though you had just missed all the fun of that weekend litterly by hours.
