MY FAVORITE
Magical Morning
On many weekends during the summer and fall, hot air balloons are launched when conditions are calm. I’ve taken many photos of this balloon, but the sunrise melting away the fog on the field was really special.
Other than the photos listed here, one of my favorite places to visit was Shohola Falls, just over the border in PA. With all the travel restrictions in place, we were lucky to visit.
