Balloon!!!

Whilst out in service on September 2, we saw this cool hot air balloon. It was sooo low we could eventually see the people in it while we drove underneath. It was pretty cool!

The highly coveted "sherman street rooster"

"Here they come to snuff the rooster...ahhh...yeah"

I thought I would just get that out of the way for you AIC fans. Many have remarked that they would like to have a five foot tall iron rooster on their property. Some have even expressed a desire to steal said rooster. Is the rooster a giant scarecrow? Yet there are no crops. Is the rooster supposed to ward off evil spirits? Who knows. If you'd like to get a close up just drive down Sherman Street south of State Street and on the corner of Sherman and Putnam you will see the rooster in all his rusting glory!
