Speaking of balloons. A couple buddies of mine saw one many years ago. They were up in the Cascades mountains in Washington state hunting and saw something in the sky they couldn't identify, at least not immediately. I wish my memory were better, as i remember they talked about seeing it for the first time and how unusual it looked to them, not to mention, you don't normally see balloons way up in the sticks, but anyway, eventually it came closer and they saw what appeared to be a metal capsule, hanging some distance below the balloon. It wasn't until they read a news paper article about some people doing a transcontinental? voyage in a balloon and seems it had come thru the area when they were hunting.
