In our own BACKYARD!!!

I was talking with our next door neighbor the other day when all of the sudden I heard the sound unmistakable sound of an hot air balloon. So, I whipped around to discover THIS about FOUR houses down! Look how LOW it is!

To show you just how close it was, the house you see on the far left is OURS!

We chased it to the backyard, and it landed behind the trees into the farmer's field. . .it stayed about 10 minutes before taking off again! Cool, eh???? Especially since it was something cool to try my new camera out on!!!
