Hi Teri, WOW the true Re/Max balloon came to your town!?!?!? What a nice picture!

Posted by Teresa Harris ~ Denver . Lake Norman . Charlotte (Holbrooks Real Estate, Inc. ) about 1 year ago

You need to schedule a time to go for a ride on the Re Max balloon the photos from the ride will be very dramatic.

That's cool! I've only seen them in the TV commercial. I'd like to ride in one sometime.

Teresa--Our office requested the flyover for the MN Governor's Fishing Opener. It was a day late because of the wind and weather but still had quite an impact. :)

Andrea--It was quite an experience as there were so few people there, my husband had to help set up...I just took photos. :)

Terry--If I ever get the chance again, I will be there! Sure would hate to drop my camera though...LOL!

Lizette--I had never seen one up close and personal either...jumped at the chance to take the pics. Only wish I had be able to take a ride too.

Posted by Teri Eckholm, REALTOR® Anoka County Acreage & Lakeshore Homes (REMAX Specialists) about 1 year ago

Teri -- looks like fun.  Are you going to try to take a ride?  I would love to experience this!

Posted by Joan Whitebook, ABR,e-Pro,CEBA Southern New Hampshire (Buyer's Option Realty Services) about 1 year ago

Joan--Don't know if I will ever get a chance. It was fun to just be there to take the pics! :)

I see you in that basket! That must be one heck of a timer on your camera, or did you use a remote controlled camera? LOL

We've got quite a few RE/MAX balloons that make appearances here in San Diego. There were three in the air at one time up in Del Mar several years ago.

Since you've never been on a hot air balloon ride, I will highly recommended one. If you ever go to a balloon festival, quite often you can volunteer and then get a free ride.

Posted by Russel Ray, San Diego Business & Marketing Consultant & Photographer (Russel Ray) about 1 year ago

Russel--Two of my colleagues went for a ride. If the balloon ever makes a return appearance in the White Bear area, I will volunteer for a ride. The gals who rode in the balloon are still talking about the experience! :)

Hi Terry when you get a chance you should take a ride in the RE/MAX balloon - it really is amazing!

Posted by Bill Gassett Metrowest Massachusetts Real Estate (RE/MAX Executive Realty) about 1 year ago

Hi Teri, What a smashing photo. We used to give rides away to our clients as closing gifts. I haven't even been in one but I can imagine what a quiet and beautiful sight . One of my clients got a ride and took some marvelous photos that she shared. I hope you get your chance to go up. I would imagine the photos you would capture would be amazing.
