Eric: Looking forward to flying in my 11^th Quechee Balloon Festival! Quechee is one of my favorite places to fly and where I do most of my flying during the year. I have been involved in balloons since 1983 when my parents and I went for our first flight in Rhode Island. Since then, my fascination with balloons has never wavered. I am excited to share my passion and enjoyment of flying balloons with all of you. Up, up and away, let’s fly!
