It was a fine event this year, with very nice daytime weather and nights not so cold as in other years. At dawn on Sat I walked all around and attempted to count just the Vanagons that had arrived by then. I saw 110 including a few truck versions. Of course even more arrived later on Sat. The hot air balloon festival was in town again and that really adds some color to the festivities. There was so little wind this year that the balloons were more numerous even in the late afternoons.
Here is somebody's video made while they walked around. They did not go by Vanagon gulch where we camped with close to 50 others. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL72fM1yVUg Mark |
