Enroute to LOE we have seen a balloon tethered and flying at a very high altitude and have wondered about it. Here is a link showing something similar if not the same type balloons. Simply amazing! It's hard to believe that a cable could be light enough to lift 3 plus miles into the air and still be strong enough to keep a balloon twice as big as the Goodyear blimp from leaving with the winds up there. This is mind boggling to me. Here is link to a writeup and some pictures of these things. Yes, these are LOE thoughts starting to happen. One more week! ![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
