Balloons and Fashion



On Monday I had the pleasure of meeting Kenlyn, a fashion student. She was kind enough to put me on her blog. Check it out! Here's the pictures:

Twist & Shout


Last month I had the pleasure of attending Twist & Shout, the national balloon convention in Oak Brook, IL, outside of Chicago. Great times were had by all, and I especially appreciated Smarty Pants and Miss Dena putting me up for a couple of days beforehand (although the invoice a week later was a bit surprising, especially the water and electricity charge). People often ask me: Jungle Jim, what is a balloon convention like? I tell them, picture 300 of the most artistically gifted, yet socially different people in the world, and you have a balloon convention! In all seriousness, I learned a lot, and got to do something I had never done. Take a look!
