7:30 AM on Sunday between my first and second cup of coffee, the doorbell rings. I am not at my best before my first POT of coffee is done :-[ but then I never had a Hot Air Balloon in my yard neither.
Guy asked me if I would mind if they landed in my pasture, sure by all means I would love it! Good and thank you but we already landed....how would you like a ride?
Pretty cool got a lil lift and help them pack it up. They asked about using my field to land and maybe takeoff from, and also invited me to crew with them. Both earns flight time!

DUDE! SWEET!
It's best to watch a furball collapse, analyzing the movements of the enemy. Watch how they maneuver, when they fire, how they break. Visualize your own attacks against those observations, then go in for the kill. Sometimes, though, you don't get that advantage. It's at these times where you go in guns blazing, but keep your head on a swivel.

I've never been in a hot air balloon... whats it like? I always imagined it as the closest thing to really flying there was... being suspended in the air with no noisy spinning things heheh

Well I been in one now but not more n a foot of the ground heh. Thought we were gonna get to go up a bit but they just loaded us up to drag the rig accross the yard to pack it up.
Sure it would be an awesome ride tho, they started about 3:30 AM, and official twilight wasn't until 4:32 AM that morn. Said they reached 6000ft :o and I am only about 10 miles from where they launched. Got to be spiritual seein a sunrise like that ^
