It's A Bird....It's A Plane..

..No! It's a hot air balloon!

Zac and I awoke early this morning. We opened the back door to let Jim out and let the cool morning air in and to our surprise saw a hot air balloon sailing away in the distance.


We have no idea where the balloon came from or where it was going but we were so pleasantly surprised to see it that we didn't care about the details. As we moved outside to get a closer look we saw another appear close by.


Zac grabbed the ladder (which was still hanging out in the backyard after we used it for our tree light project) and we climbed up to the patio roof to catch a better view of these balloons. It was up on the roof that we saw there were actually five balloons floating above Fresno this morning. These were the last two we were able to catch a glimpse of before they all drifted away.


This is certainly not something we see everyday and it was a great way to start our morning!

I say that almost anything that has one climbing on the roof to get a better look is a great way to start the day! mark
