    I am in brighton, not that far from you in Garden city.
    Cool, let me know what kind of stuff you want to check out. We can meet up somewhere and you can see the stuff.

    I first started balloon art about twenty years ago. I was more focused on busking and entertainment rather than competition. I've been out of it for a few years but keep hoping I can get back into it at some point. We have a very diverse collection of members here. You should feel right at home.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    very cool about the balloons, I also started 20 years ago doing them for busking and shows but right now with the economy all over but especially michigan it has kind of dried up the availabilty to collect a desent tip. so i kind of fell into the competitons by being set up by a friend and now do them strictly to push the art form in the right direction, I have done leonardo da vinci's last supper 20 feet long at one muesum and hope to do more in the future. and yes there is a very diverse group here I think that is a big reason why I am enjoying it so much all ready.
