Looks beautiful! Where did you say you are located?  

Thanks, Princess! I'm in Western Washington not too far from Seattle.  

Cool! When I lived in Phoenix, I saw balloon flights often. One day, there were close to 30 flying over my home. 

omgoodness, it's so green and beautiful!  

I love the walk pictures! Keep posting them! 

I love to see where other people live— beautiful places. Knowing where people live also helps to be able to make appropriate comments for their setting. Doesn’t help to talk about WHole Foods (the store) if someone lives in a rural area an hours drive from a Walmart.  

gz9gig, I would love to see 30 balloons! That must be so beautiful! I'm lucky to see a couple a year, and mostly far in the distance. babayjo, I sometimes get bitter about all the rain, but you can't have the pretty green without the grey skies. Fritzy, I will! It is actually really fun for me to share my world a little. I end up seeing things through fresh eyes. Kenna, I'm the same. Having a window into where someone is living or visiting is really nice! 

I've always wanted to ride in one of those. I was going to do it for a birthday a few years ago and the winds were constantly causing the launch to be cancelled and I took it as a sign that it wasn't the thing for me. 

Awwww, Bella! You should try again! It looks like such fun! It has to be so peaceful floating across the sky. I'd love to go someday!  

Nodding along - that was the allure for me but as soon as I voiced the desire my friends started flooding me with articles about the crashes, floating into live wires, etc.  

Beautiful!
