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!

Hi! I love hot air balloons too. I confess that I would like to go up in one someday.
And what exactly are “eProps”?
Ooh, beautiful! I love that lens angle on the last one – it really looks 3-D, with the sky sweeping away.. I can really “feel” the feeling of that sunset launch.
