I woke up this morning thinking, Ugh, Monday again. Like usual, I dragged my butt out of bed, showered, slapped on some make-up, threw on some clothes, grabbed some grub and headed out the door and into my car. I drove about a mile and when I reached the top of the hill my whole mood changed. At least fifteen hot air balloons filled the Des Moines sky. Softly floating under the morning sun. Beautiful, serene, and damn cool. Thank you, balloonists, for giving central Iowa a perfect start to a day.
Did you see the balloons today? Share where you saw them!
I didn't have my camera with me this morning, so you'll have to imagine that Des Moines looked something like this image I grabbed online.
