The Great Texas Balloon Race - Longview, Texas

Last weekend the Great Texas Balloon Race was held in Longview, Texas. The balloons were on show and glowing Saturday evening before the Travis Tritt concert. Sunrise on Sunday morning, the balloonists tried to hit a marker and many of them came in very low. With some wind, they had to be quick to drop their marker. Andrew Holly, from England (Guiness World Record Holder) also participated.
