What better way to fly than by a balloon chair, rather Couch? Mister Kent Couch of Bend, Oregon drifted his way to Idaho via hundreds of rainbow balloons! The image of him soaring in the air surrounded by colorful balloons seems something out of a Mary-Poppins-esque film… so magical! I wouldn’t mind trying his flying contraption over the mountains! If we are talking “magical” maybe even the mountain goats would be wearing lederhosen!
If I had the time and money and people, I’d do this every weekend, Couch said before getting into the chair. Things just look different from up there. You’ve moving so slowly. The best thing is the peace, the serenity.
