A Hot Air Balloon at Our House

It is a tradition for us to attend the Great Reno Balloon Race each September but when a balloon lands at our own house it is an exciting event. This gentleman has landed at or near our house once each summer for the past 3 years and the children are delighted.



Walking on the balloon to get the air out--- How fun!

It has landed in our street the first time, hit our chimney and landed in our front yard last summer and this time it was not actually in our yard but flew over our house and landed on Dorchester--it is a fscination for us. Have you been to the balloon races? It is a spectacular thing to see, come with us this year.
