Saturday, September 10

it sounded like elephants Breathing...


but it was a herd of hot air balloons approaching from the west!

over the deck
coming in for a landing
touchdown
putting things away for next time

What a gorgeous sight on a September Saturday morning! These folks landed in a field about 1000 yards from our house. 
A bunch of us neighbors headed out in clothes quickly thrown on, barefooted and hair uncombed to watch them land. I grabbed a camera but not my glasses, I wasn't even sure what my pictures looked like till I got home.

Thank you, Balloonists for a perfect start to the day!

ps. Beth and Becka, that is the corner of Moon Meadows and Sheridan Lake Rd.
