Spirit of Boise.

     The Spirit of Boise Balloon Festival was going on a few weeks ago and we thought it would be fun to check it out so early one morning we got up and rode our bikes to Ann Morrison Park to watch all the hot air balloons launch.
     When we got there some balloon owners had already asked my dad if he could help them set up and launch their balloon. Nate quickly joined in and it was pretty neat to see how its all done and what goes into prepping a balloon for lift off.
     After it was all ready to go they asked Nate if he wanted to chase the balloon in the truck with them and help put it away when it landed so he stayed and did that which sounded just as cool!

Non-boating.

     For Heaton's last day in Boise we tried to take the boat up to the lake but naturally once we got it in the water it wouldn't start. So instead we headed over to a little beach to splash around on. Some of us had more fun than others...
