Look, up in the sky!

during one of our recent snowy days, I let Doogie out back to do his business, and noticed something odd in the sky...


Did you see it? That little dot just above the treeline? Here...


While we see a bunch of hot air balloons passing over our area in the warmer seasons, I think this is the first time I've seen one in the winter. I guess I just figured that wasn't something you did during cold weather - like maybe it's harder to get the balloons afloat, or perhaps they're harder to navigate with higher winds? Whatever the case...I wonder what it's like to be flying overhead like that?

Doogie was checking them out too...
