The moon, the sun, and a balloon

On Mother's Day we were sitting in the yard at my sister's house after a yummy dinner when her dogs started barking. Out over the tree-line a balloon was floating down and getting ready for a landing. Here's the scene from the farm across the road.


It's not everyday that you expect a hot air balloon to drop in your front yard but that's what happened to the Donaldson's on Bartholomew Rd. in Auburn.


The art on the balloons is wonderful. The name of this one is Moonlight Sun-ATA piloted by Janet M. Lutkus of Chagrin Falls.

Who designs the artwork anyway? What a fun job that would be.


It takes about 20 minutes to deflate these big bags.


Looks like the moon is moving in for a little smoochin'.
