Hey folks:  

Well, we sent our first balloon up yesterday.  We almost didn't  get it 
back, but we finally found it in a desert wash. It went up to over  55,000 
feet.  Some pics at:

Our next planned balloon launch (maybe thurs/fri/sat/sun) will hopefully  
reach over 90,000 feet.  


I failed miserably at RDF, and I don't know why -- any  tutorials out 
there?  


thx, gil
