    I actually was visited by a wandering helium balloon about a year ago… a regular thin latex one, with the name of a local vineyard on it.

    Already only a few feet above the ground, it drifted onto my porch and bumped my door.

    It was pretty, and purple, so I let it in….

    It took several days to fall to the floor, and another month or so to be empty and shrivelled.

     

    And years before that, I got a shiny new mylar one as a gift…. I kept it to see how long it lasted.

    Months and months before completely falling.

     

    So what ill wind surrounds Monty to make his balloon fail in six minutes?

    I was also wondering why the balloon lost it’s helium so quickly.

    Balloons filled with hydrogen would be much more fun. Especially for people who smoke.
