Don't Light Floating Lanterns on Windy Days.

I've been wanting to let off one of these floating lanterns since seeing them for the first time two years ago.
Noah, on the other hand, has been a little wary of lighting something on fire and then releasing it into the air. But he indulged my curiosity.
Moments after lighting it, we recognized that lighting a sky lantern on a windy day was perhaps not the best idea.

then a few moments after that, we realized it was a very, VERY bad idea to light a sky lantern on a windy day in our neighborhood.
we got lucky... this time... and it cleared our neighbor's house.

Phew.
