@LakeRedRock offers an unique observation tower and an eagle's eye view! Just bring quarters! #ThisisIowa

The balloons will be launching from the beach at around 6:30 tonight!!!

The hot air balloons from the @LakeRedRock Balloon Fest came right over (and next to) our house this morning. Great start to a beautiful Saturday morning in Iowa. Photos credits go to my wife, Amber Green.

@PearsonCattle @LakeRedRock It is! They are firing them up! Just like burning out a flower bed, what could possibly go wrong with propane and a huge balloon? 🤷‍♂️

Could think of worse ways to wake up on @LakeRedRock. Watching the morning launch for the Balloon Fest going on all weekend. Pretty cool stuff. #isthisheavennoitsiowa #boatiowa #ballooniowa

Another great launch!

Some of the balloons are over Pella right now.

Balloons are starting to launch! Many are taking off from the Pella Airport.

Getting ready for the pancake breakfast this morning. Come out to the beach and enjoy!

Beautiful launch over the lake!

Remember the night glow at 9pm at the beach!

Update! The goal is to launch between 7:30 and 7:45 as wind is improving.

Pilots are being released to fly if they choose. Will fly from NW to SE. should go right over North Overlook Beach!!!
