It was tough. He had to carry it attached to a 2-pound rock to keep it from floating away. Not so tough once it was attached to the rock, but first he had to bring the 2-pound rock to the balloon. That was tough!
If you compare the strip for 3-Dec-2019, it is revealed that this is just another of the “Ant Queen” tributes in honor of Hart’s wife Bobby, which was a decades old tradition in the strip.

It had to be an entire balloon because a slice of balloon wouldn’t work.

Just wondering: does this signify some special date in the history of the strip?

Looking at the fine print; copyright to trust regarding Ida Hart. Someone important to John Hart.
