Conditions were perfect on a Saturday morning in January for an informal gathering of hot air balloonists at East Troy Airport. With 10 balloons participating, the early morning liftoff also made for a nice surprise for local residents. Several balloonists landed in a subdivision near Mukwonago, bringing many curious children still in their pajamas outside, while also scaring a few deer. Dubbed the 23nd Annual Wildcard Playoff Weekend Balloon Rally, coordinated by John Trione of Lake Geneva Balloon Company, the event’s light and variable winds made for perfect flying.
