It’s a bird!  It’s a plane!  It’s a…..rastafarian clown hot-air balloon??

You never know what you’re going to see in the skies above Holzen.  This evening was no exception!  Mari Ellen and I were off on a culinary adventure when we saw this:

 

But the true “giggle moment” came when the happy dude descended a little and his dreadlocks started to bounce around his head.  Guess he was having an aerial bad-hair day.  It was pretty memorable–in a surreal and very UN-German kind of way! 

If you could design a hot-air balloon, what would yours look like??  Here’s wishing you your own flying something-or-other.
