Foley balloon festival is more than just hot air - al.com: "FOLEY — Alligators, snakes and Frisbee-catching canines may not sound like typical attractions, but those are just some of the sideshows that add lift to the fifth annual Gulf Coast Hot Air Balloon Festival.

'People come to the festival expecting to see hot air balloons all day long,' South Baldwin Chamber of Commerce communications director LaDonna Hinesley said. 'We're still trying to get the message out that the balloons can only fly in the early morning or late in the afternoon.'"
