Thursday night, this was the view from our yard. We first heard them. They make a whoosing noise when they hit the gas to raise the balloon. There was another one that followed this one. When I got up at 6:00am today, I heard the familiar sound and another balloon was drifting overhead quite low. I hope we see more when friend Barb is here in July. Years ago, they launched these about a mile from our house and we saw many drifting over the house. Nice air traffic and certainly quieter than the 747 runway we lived near in Minneapolis.
