Every year, my city of Alliance holds what are called Carnations Days, which consist of the Rib & Food Fest and Days in the Park. There are normally several bands that play at different venues in the city, and numerous food vendors, many of which are running their big fundraiser for the year, like the Kiwanis, YWCA or various religious organizations. Much of Days in the Park was rained out this year, including the Balloon Launch. I popped down yesterday afternoon following a wedding and took a few photos, of which my favorite is below.
