To the east of the adobe shack rise the Organ Mountains. The house itself sits in the valley north of Las Cruces. This particular clear crisp morning we were awarded the sight of nine hot air balloons drifting along. That isn't all that unusual a sight in the Mesilla Valley. We saw balloons Saturday as we headed out to do our weekend shopping and run errands. The bonus this morning was to see the air craft landing in the open area between our location and the main roads a few miles to the east.
Not only do we have those lovely views and the privacy of the pecan orchard but we are also near a hot air balloon launch and landing site!!!
I'm sure pictures will appear soon on CZ's site so stay tuned.

The balloon photos, which turned out to be pretty unimpressive compared to the real thing, will appear on my blog on 1/21/10.
