Cold Hot Air Balloon.

1-24-16 VERMONT: The NY metro area got some snow yesterday, we heard, but here we had not one flake. It was cloudy in the morning, but cleared in the afternoon. Today is beautiful, in the mid-teens, but with no wind, it was a fine walk. Judy used her snowshoes, I walked in her tracks with just winter boots.

Lily and Sam were here for dinner last night, and the previous night we went to the tapas place with Sherry and Dave. This afternoon we will see Steve and Diana’s slides from Africa.

We were very surprised to see a hot-air balloon yesterday. It kept sinking below the horizon and then popping up again. I bet it was a cold ride.

The balloon dropped low about three times and rose again.

I'm guessing the air was too cold so it was too hard to keep the balloon hot.
