Is anyone going to the Balloon Fiesta in ABQ October 6th - 15th?

Reason I ask is I was going to see if anyone would pick up some things for my friend. T-shirt, mug, coasters, towels anything really. She is a hot air balloon pilot.

Earlier this week she lost her house, her hot air balloon, all of her vehicles and other stuff in a "freak explosion." I have been looking EVERYWHERE to find stuff with balloons on it so that way she has stuff with hot air balloons on it. I mean if I had lots of airplane shirts, mugs, coasters and so on I would want to have stuff with airplanes on it to have that feeling of comfort.

This weekend I am going through my pictures and will be making copies of them for her...that way she has "some memories" of the better days.

If anyone could please help me out with this I would be forever grateful.

I won't be there but that is a sweet thing to do. I hope someone can help.

I'll be there, for sure. If I hadn't gotten stuck with mono, I would have been working as a Zebra this year too, but I missed a bunch of the meetings. Sucks.

But - I will take a bunch of pictures, it has changed in the more recent years. They launch off grass now too.
