I did my first hot air balloon ride 2 yrs ago in Spokane Valley..I loved it!! I was something I had always wanted to do..When I lived east of Phoenix on the weekends we would watch the balloons come from the Superstitions mountains toward Phoenix. It was a beautiful site. I hope to make it to New Mexico next yr to see that..
If you look at my pic to the left you can see the shadow (lower left) of the balloon I was in.. I didnot see this when I took this pic...
