KSL TV KANAB — A hot air balloon festival in Kanab took a frightening turn for one Utah couple as they headed straight for the water. Luckily, everyone made it back to shore safely. The couple onboard included KSL photojournalist Matt Newey who shared his experience. Newey said he and his girlfriend were looking forward to something unique, but they definitely had an experience far greater than what they paid for. "The weather was looking really good," he said. "They sent up these test balloons." Early Saturday morning, Matt Newey and Carlie Ann Gallagher were ready for take off during Southern Utah's annual Balloons and Tunes Round Up.
