The View From Up Here







I was recently invited to take a hot air balloon ride as part of a media tour for The Hudson Hot Air Affair. The HHAA is a hot air balloon rally/winter carnival in Hudson, WI. Today was the first day that the winds cooperated and we were able to take flight. The highest altitude reached by our balloon was just over 1300 feet. It was quite an experience. The balloon pilot was incredible. Our landing was like sitting down on the couch. Enjoy the pics. I will be at the event all weekend and should have some more photos on the way.
