Sara from The Daily Post at WordPress has posted the new weekly theme and it’s BLUE!
Every year, at the opening of the State Fair, I try and attend the Night the Light where they set up the balloons and light them up as the night sky darkens. This was taken a few years ago. Now they wouldn’t let people this close. I loved taking pictures of the insides of the balloons. Bet you CAN guess what this balloon was about…
This photo was taken the next morning when the balloons were taking off. I think I permanently ruined by neck taking this shot. Again, they won’t allow you to get this close.
And this last photo had to be the blue blue sky of Newport, RI. We were just driving around and came across a number of kites. It was wonderful. Sea air, blue sky and colorful kites.

The Best Years Are... 
Beautiful. How interesting it must be to go up in a hot air balloon.
I didn’t go up in these. It was a race and only crew went.
Oh Happy blue! Beautiful. 🙂
Thank you!
BLUE was not my decision, it was Mrs. Sarah Rosso, New York, her Friday challenge hesitated till Monday; my weekly (A-Z Archive) photo challenge is always on Tuesday:
