Very Cool. I've always wanted to ride in one of those. Maybe one day I will get too.

Thats pretty cool, The closet I have come, is I found two weather ballons on separate occasions with labels, and mailing instructions in my pasture. Here is an interesting article:

Neat to just watch them "float", I used to see them allot in Colorado and while traveling through Albuquerque headed to Texas to visit. Really neat to see 20-40 leaving the ground. Thanks for the pics:thumbsup:

They are nothing but a pain in the butt around here. Scare all the livestock, ruin crops, and want to use our land and the neighbor's to make money. One clipped the top off one of my nice blue spruce once, he didn't care. They are nice to see - at a very long distance.

From this angle, it does look scary close to that cable, at least for something you can't steer and has no brakes.
