Blue And Orange Hot Air Balloons Over Salt Lake City

Date: December 31, 2010 and January 1, 2011
Time: Between 11:00 and midnight.

Happy New Year!

My husband and I set off two hot air balloon type things last night between 11:00 and midnight. One was blue and the second one, 20 minutes later, was orange. I think the one that got reported on your website, was probably our orange one.

They sell these at the fireworks stand in Battle Mountain. They're basically a paper balloon that's treated with fire retardant, and then it has an incendiary device just under the paper balloon that you light. It floats straight up, works like a hot air balloon, and the paper balloon part glows.

Very pretty. We thought they looked like UFO's when they got really high up. So, I thought I'd Google and see if anyone reported it.

Thank you.
