Up, Down and Away

Oh dear.

At the Albuquerque Balloon Festival in New Mexico today, one of the hot air balloons burned and crashed, killing one of the two aboard and sending the other to the hospital.

Apparently it crashed into power lines when the wind picked up a little, which is what caused it to ignite.

The hot air balloons are so beautiful as they pepper the sky on a lovely fall day.

But boy does it suck when they go down in flames.
