Balloon Days

Himself and I have somehow been out of town the last 6 or 7 years for Balloon Days but here we were, this year.  We worked Friday, came home and had supper but were oblivious.  In the dark.  Not a clue! We had forgotten about the balloons. 

We were sitting out on the patio Friday after supper and I saw a hot air balloon, up.  Up in the air, to our south.  I said, come on, honey, let's go see the balloons?  And we jumped in the Jeep and went looking . . .
we chased hot air balloons.  sort of.  We drove east.  We drove north.  We drove south and back north again and found this dirt road . . . we parked.  And it was good. 


Himself calculated balloons north.  He counted balloons south.  He averaged and found the Norm and announced there are at least 21 balloons in the air.  And we sat and enjoyed and counted and recounted!  And enjoyed the math!  lol
And the sights and the beautiful evening.
And the balloons. 



PS:  and yesterday, a good thing, I think I finally got that spot off my camera lens!

You got some really good pics of the balloons! I was saving up for Saturday and then they didn't go up. Glad you got to enjoy them this year.
