After a wonderful whirlwind weekend ... a weekend that consisted of a 13-hour drive through the rain from Georgia to Pennsylvania, a shopping extravaganza with my guest blogger Sarah, dinner with a bunch of rowdy Penn State fans, Bruce surprising my parents, an amazing 150th anniversary celebration at St. Johns, a beautiful fall-colored drive to Connecticut and a morning in Kent, CT ... I am back in Atlanta!! I have a paper due tomorrow that I started about 25,000 feet in the air, but I will be back throughout the week to talk about why I love the northeast, why my family is awesome, why I am proud to be part of the UCC and why I have the greatest friends ever.
But for the time being ...
... there is a hot air balloon landing pad near the PA/NJ state border on I-78. It was GORGEOUS on Sunday so we saw dozens flying over the highway!!
Doesn't that look peaceful? And kind of terrifying at the same time ...

I seem to remember a news story about someone falling out of one of those not too long ago...
ReplyDeleteNeal, don't tell me things like that.

When I was like four I went up in a (tethered) hot air balloon. It was LOUD.
