Meet the Jolly Rollo - the newest addition to the Owen family!
Larry and Sheelagh bought their first balloon almost 22 years ago, the S.S. Rollo Fitzpug. The S.S., because it IS NOT a steamship -- Rollo was the name of W.C Fields in one of his movies, the Fitzpug (hmm, no meaning there). In fact they liked the name so much they later named one of their dogs after the balloon.
S. S. Rollo Fitzpug is now 22 years old with over 700 flight hours and it is time to usher in the new. The Jolly Rollo, a 2016 Lindstrand 77, custom designed and built for them by owners Phil and Lisa Thompson. |
