First flight of the year and all the balloons want to come out. Beautiful Saturday morning and we got off first for a change, just ahead of Bob.

Initially headed over the trees and into the pond, then turned further N to drop into the N end of the runway extension. Continued NNE to cross RT111 west of the Boxboro Library and drop low over the marsh. Moved E across the marsh and turned NNE again when we climbed up at the edge. Cross RT2 near Boxborough Rd and passed between Fort Pond and Long Lake.

Approaching RT2A near The Pickford Farm we landed near a relatively new home driveway on the south side. Deflated on the driveway. Everyone else went a bit further N.
