  • It is super gray and dreary here this morning.  Dh and I had a hard time getting out of bed….Gray days like this just make us want to pull the covers up over our heads and stay in bed.   

    I have been saving some pictures to share with you.  We live next door to an open 4 acre field.  it is mowed and hayed, so it does not have tall grass on it.  Several years ago there was a spell for several summers where a local hot air balloon company would routinely launch in the morning and/or evening out of the field.  We enjoyed watching the balloons go up.  Somehow, hot air balloons seem so magical! So, it was really a treat to see them frequently.

    Then for the past few years, for some reason, there have been no balloon launches from the field.  Honestly, I have missed them.  But guess what!? This year they are back.  There have been two evening balloon launches in the past month or so. And I have lots of pictures!

    I will be keeping my eyes and ears open in the evenings so that I won’t miss any balloon launches!
