More early morning air balloons

Air balloons landing near our campsite a few mornings ago:


We are happily settled in a great campsite near Sedona, AZ.  It's peaceful and quiet here, and really dark at night, which is nice.  Except for the moonlight.  Yesterday evening we had the most beautiful full moon.  I just happened to look outside as it was peeking over the horizon, a huge orange moon.


I haven't seen a lot of birds in this area, but yesterday this guy landed on my truck mirror and settled into a tree right next to my window.   He was really interested in both my truck's side mirrors.  It looks like he has whiskers around his beak. 


This morning I woke up to the hot air balloon trucks driving past, going into the field near my site.  I looked out my bunk window and thought they were landing.  I snuggled back under my covers, but then I heard the sounds of the balloons being filled and jumped out of bed and grabbed my camera and went outside.

This is the first time I've seen them launch:


Can you see the flames in the balloon on the right?  There's a loud WOOSH sound when they do that.


There were four balloons, and they sure were beautiful up in the sky.  Such a gorgeous morning, and what a way to start my day!

I'm looking forward to another great day - and wishing the same to you! 🎈🕶😊
