We had a special treat this evening...we counted ten hot air balloons passing by. We regularly see them in the summertime, and some of them looked familiar..but not this one! I thought this tuxedo balloon was unique.
There was a group of ten balloons that took off a few miles away as part of a special event. It was a quiet evening, and we could hear the burners in the balloons as they floated by. Several of them landed briefly in our Amish neighbor's field. If you enlarge the picture, you can see his horses beside the tan shed in the center. They were quite worked up...running back and forth...back and forth...
...and off they go again...
... they float southwest...into someone else's view to create some excitement...
It was a beautiful sight to top off a beautiful day!
Beautiful! What a great photo opportunity. I'm sure it did get the animals all excited.
ReplyDeleteHow peaceful! I would love to take a hot air ballon ride. Just seeing those photos makes me smile. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing hot air balloons floating in the air it looks so picturesque.
ReplyDeleteI changed something on my blog. I don't know if it will help. I hoping it will let you leave comments again.
There is one more setting which is a email setting. If this one doesn't work maybe I could try that one.
I hope it works this time.
oh how my dad loved to follow and "chase" those balloons in The Netherlands! Here in Indiana we don't see them as much here!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes horses, sheep, cows and even dogs can sometimes get really upset about those noises and things...
Have a great week!

It was fun seeing the balloons so close on such a beautiful evening. Two of them landed at my in-laws....one in the front yard and one in the field. I imagine it would feel like a grand adventure to fly in one of those things. Oh the places we could go!.....Rhoda
