It’s a gas balloon which could be a weather balloon. The balloon fiesta starts Saturday. It could be a preflight for the gas balloon race. Thanks, Liz.
I like the night flying balloon. It is fairly brightly lit, and must have attracted a bit of attention down there. What kind of balloon is it? A prelude to the annual balloon festival?
Off Center & Not Even 
Gorgeous contrast!
Thanks, Michele.
These are so cool! Weather balloon?

Admitted, know very little about he balloon accelerate – is it propane? .. I hope they have a spare canister regardless.
The gas balloons use hydrogen. The hot air balloons burn propane. Thanks, Brian.
Unfortunately, yes, I do have gas.
I’m like a one man gas band. I could probably fill a balloon or two. Thanks, Resa.
LOL!
And here I thought the only one man band was Electrical!
