These balloons landed in my Dad’s “back yard” in 2006.
We, of course, went down to chat with them.
They didn’t offer us a ride though…

Was it “The Wizard?”
I love hot air balloons. My husband was suppose to propose on a HAB overlooking the sunrise….but when we got out there it was sooooo windy the balloon operator said “Well, we can go up….but I can’t guarantee where we’re gonna land. We could end up on the expressway or in the water….and most likely will be bumpy a/k/a crash landing.” Yeah, no thanks!
Dude, if they hadn’t offered me a ride I would’ve offered them trespassing charges. But I’m just petty like that. >:) Great pictures!
What a cool thing to have happen! Bee would have peed her pants with excitement over that. She read a book about hot air balloons over the summer, and she’s been pestering us to let her ride in one ever since. I’ll have to show her this post.
That’s one heck of a yard:-)
that was cool!! i bet it was fun to be up, close and presonal with the balloons. i’ve never been on a ride.
happy fx4
Coming in from Candid Carrie!! Very cool! TFS
I love those balloons, especially the cow print one.
WOW…big backyard…and the least they could’ve done is offered you a ride! 🙂
