Channel: Balloon Fiesta

Location: Rio Rancho, New Mexico

I was awoke by the sounds of electric volts and sirens. I ran to my back door and could see a balloon smoking. I could hear distant sounds of crying out and yelling. It took me a few moments to register what I was witnessing. My heart sunk. I was immediately sick to my stomach. I was just shaking. I ran for my video camera and was only able to get the smoking envelope on tape blowing North.

My heart goes out to all involved.
