Hot-air balloons filled the sky over Boise this morning, as they have in so many past years. At one point, I counted seventeen in the sky at once.
Launches are planned each morning through Sunday as part of the “Spirit of Boise Balloon Classic,” along with a “Night Glow” show and concert in Ann Morrison Park from 6 to 10 p.m. on Saturday.Organizers say close to 30 hot-air balloons are scheduled to participate.
