Thanks! There are a couple of reasons for the early flights. First is safety. The air is much more calm in the morning and balloons can't handle much more than a light breeze. The other is that there's more lift when it's cool. The balloons soar because of the difference in density between the warm air inside the balloon and the and cold air outside.

That looks like a lot of fun! Thanks for the explanation.

T is for TURKEYS. These two toms were strutting their stuff for a bevy of hens - about 15 - that wandered into our yard. The hens seemed not at all impressed. IQ compromised by shooting through a double pane window.
