Thanks Howard.  I took one camera, but you post made me reexamine and I see 
that I inadvertently clicked on a shot my father-in-law took (6392) so that 
is why the number is so different.  I have an almost identical shot as he 
was standing right by me when we too them.  I will tell him you liked his 
shot, and I apologize to the group for the accidental plagiarism.

Well, speaking of balloon festivals! A day after I post my shots, yours 
appear. I especially like 6392, 722, and 932. (How many cameras did you 
take, anyway?)

Nice work.
