Balloons and music in the air

Dan, Julie and Christine, Andy and his girlfriend Shannon spent an evening watching hot-air balloons ascend and listening to music at the annual Quick Chek Festival of Ballooning in Readington, N.J. on Saturday. Click the slideshow to see lots more.



After the balloons took off and drifted away, the humorous Canadian rock band Bare Naked Ladies put on a fun show, including hits like "If I Had a Million Dollars" and "One Week." As the sky darkened, several balloons that had returned to the site were reinflated for a "balloon glow."
