how do you keep from blowing away? do you just have to hope you land in a spot that is nice?
As I understand it you have up and down but no side to side. Luckily there is literally nothing out here in either direction.

Gocarts have more safety stuff. Riding lawnmowers have more safety stuff. These guys could just plummet to their death

I drive to work everyday and I probably have more of a chance of dying than someone in a hot air balloon cf3
there's no WAY that's true. maybe if you skateboarded to work on a freeway

I'll update this thread with a body count after day two of this event
i'm sure no one will die SD. they're just downing bottles of merlot and getting into a flying fire basket.

It would be cool to jump out of the hot air balloon (if you had a parachute).I'd like to bungee jump out of one.

In my younger years I did lots of zip-lining, rip cords, and a bit of bungee jumping. I think I need to start again.It would be cool to jump out of the hot air balloon (if you had a parachute).I'd like to bungee jump out of one.

I noticed that when I was driving around the new fancy neighborhoods of MHK last week and also I noticed it in these pictures so I was curious.

SD are all the houses in your hood painted like taupe and brown and gray and other snoozeville colors? If so, is that like an HOA thing?
I noticed that when I was driving around the new fancy neighborhoods of MHK last week and also I noticed it in these pictures so I was curious.
Pretty much. There is no requirement from the HOA on paint color but all shingles have to be the same and all fences have to be the same color and material. What other colors would you paint a house? Like, red or orange or some crap?

Well probably not orange, but there are a lot of houses that have actual colors. Believe it or not, I live in a blue house :confused:

I will say that it was super quiet up there and the air was very calm so I can understand why some people say it’s so peaceful, but it’s not for everyone. The landing is not exactly graceful - it’s a controlled crash. We landed in a church parking lot, and it turns out they were having some sort of youth function so the kids got quite a show.
A few years before that when I was living in south JoCo a balloon literally landed in my driveway.
