Hershey and I were out for a walk early this morning. As we approached our usual turn-around place, I caught sight of a hot air balloon inflating. I decided to walk out to the main road and take a look. By the time we got there, the balloon was inflated and preparing to launch:

By the time we got back to where I first saw it and I turned around to look, it was in hot pursuit of us.

Or, at least, that’s what Hershey thought. He was very concerned. Of course, the balloon soon left us far in its wake.
