A solo-seat hot air balloon landed in Harrisonburg Monday night.

Dentist Robert Deitrich says he made a soft landing in someone's front yard at the Belmont Estates about an hour after taking off from Singers Glen.

He says his balloon in one of two dozen in the country.

Deitrich also says homeowners don't usually mind when he turns their lawns into a landing strip.

Why is this even newsworthy? A cloud hopper makes a landing. Big whoop!
