We had just finished supper when - -

- my wife Jeanne cried out " quick grab a camera, there is a balloon landing in our back field". I grabbed her camera loaded with a 14-45mm as mine was downstairs & rushed out onto the balcony & got this shot before it disappeared behind the trees.

I collected my camera loaded with a 58mm & we rushed down the hill. Jeanne, on medication, said I guess one glass of champagne will not hurt me. When we got down below the ponds we discovered the balloon had gone back up & drifted to the next road south of us where it did land.

No champagne!

When we got back to the top of the hill we stopped for a breather.

GTA = Greater Toronto Area.

I was going to say Grand Theft Auto. I was fairly confident Ron stole cars, and did mob jobs up until this point.

He did work for the government, is that close enough to mob work?
