up up and away

New to us was watching the launch of hot air balloons.


It was such an amazing process as they spread out, fired up


and lifted off.


We can only imagine what it must be like to be on-board


as they hovered in the Letchworth State Park Gorge

Thanks Dave and Debbie for including us in this adventure.

    How beautiful and colorful they are! I used to live in Hornell, NY and went to Letchworth quite often. Is there still a restaurant there? They were famous for their cinnamon sundaes. We also used to go to Stoneybrook State Park in Dansville.

    Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving nice comments!

    Oh my goodness, the scenery is amazing and then you add in the colorful balloons and it's unbelievable. I would like to go up in one...I think. :)

    Beautiful! I actually hopped in one several years ago without thinking! I loved it then but might be too chicken these days.

    We took a balloon ride once...it was amazing! The landing was a little scary, but I'd do it again! So fun! You got some gorgeous pictures of it!
