So after waking the kids, packing their lunches, and sending them off to school, it is a peaceful morning ... when I hear a "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" from outside the open window. I realize it's a nearby hot-air balloon ... when they are close, you almost always hear them before you see them. I look to the West ... and it is coming right at my house ... and is very low. It drifts slightly to the South and he sets down in a skinny section of open space right behind my back yard - first time in the over 10 years I have lived here in Lafayette - bummer my kids had already left. alek P.S. I saw some nice pictures on MyTown from the airshow this weekend ... I missed it this year, but have some nifty pictures from last year's airshow at Rocky Mountain Airport.
