With no power lines but the number of trees in the neighborhood the street was likely the safest place he could have landed. Hope you got other pics of the balloon and the process of deflating and packing.

This is GREAT. They even landed in the LANE instead of in the middle of the road. You could put wheels on it and just drive it away. Good lucky day!

Ron LaFond gave props (30 Mar 2009):
"Now there's something you don't see everyday, Chauncy!" It really offers a terrific perspective as to just how big these things are sitting in a neighborhood. It's deceiving when they are out in the open in the middle of New Mexico or floating gracefully by in the sky. Nice shot, Lynn. There is very little like 'being in the right place . . . " A favorite.
