Fly the Friendly Skies!

What a cool day! I got to ride co-pilot on the Goodyear Blimp! I went up with a crew from ESPN. How did I land this gig? Why I volunteered to be their official photographer, that's how! We have a big Goodyear Plant here, and the communications director has been very good to me. I actually didn't think I would get to ride because it only holds 6 people, but the ESPN folks didn't have as many as planned, so there was an extra seat ... it just happened to be shotgun!

Unfortunately, Google Blooger has been having picture post problems, so Here's a link to the pics!

I would NEVER go up in a blimp or a hot air balloon, but you are much more adventurous than I. Very cool photos!
