They'd take off from the Tahoe airport & after drifting over the lake, would land on a boat in the middle of the lake! Tricky, but excellent pilots & no accidents. We talked about taking a trip in one, but never did. Fun to watch them though. The pilots would bring the balloon down to almost skim the basket on the surface of the lake, then rise again. Amazing. Reno, Nevada, holds a hot air balloon festival in early September & I remember one morning 11 years ago, driving around a corner on the way down to the hospital where my daughter was recovering from a serious boating accident, & seeing maybe 50 colorful balloons floating in the early morning sun above the town. What a sight it was, & what a boost to my spirit at that particularly difficult time! La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.com
