Balloonist Stuck In Ohio Ends Day Near Home Farm
Balloonist Tracy Barnes, 27, of Chester South Carolina, remained stuck in northwest Ohio after a day of back-and-forth winds. The cross-country journey from San Diego began April 9, with winds pushing the 65 foot hot air balloon 200 miles from Illinois to Ohio, then sending him north and west. He briefly hovered over the Ohio Turnpike at 3,000 feet before settling on Howard Stantz's farm near the Williams Fulton County line to avoid Lake Erie.
