"It was beautiful -beautiful," he recalled - peaceful and serene -
much like a hot-air balloon ride, but laid-back, not standing up.

He'd used a folding-lamp arm to mount the video camera and get
panoramic views, but that was one of the things that went up, up
and away with the lawn chair and remaining 4-foot balloons.

they're offering a $200 reward for the flying lawn chair and
items' safe return. But he said a GPS unit Couch did have in his
pocket when he landed

Still, if the chair and gear are found, likely somewhere in the
Wallowas, he'd love to get the seven-plus hours of video Couch
shot, with such moments as when he inhaled a bit of the helium to
start talking in that funny, Donald Duck way people sometimes
jokingly do.
