Hot Air Balloon

On my way into work this past week I spotted a hot air balloon off in the distance. At first I thought it was the ReMax Balloon but then I thought it was rather early in the morning to be trying to sell homes (5:45-6:00ish in the morning). As I drove closer, it was just a recreational hot air balloon.

I would love to go on a hot air balloon ride sometime and would actually love someday to go to the hot air balloon festival in New Mexico. One of the apple orchards here around Omaha had a {mini} hot air balloon festival this past fall but Ryan and I weren't able to go to the lighting ceremony {where they start to fill the balloons really early in the morning when it is still dark} because I was working that day :( Maybe this fall I'll not be on call so we can go. Anyways, as I was pulling into the hospital, I had to take a picture of the balloon in the distance...

Picture perfect!
