Object hovered between Longmont and Berthoud, then vanished

I was driving on I-25 just north of exit 240 and saw some kind of aircraft hovering in the sky to the west between Longmont and Berthoud. It was too far away to see a distinct shape, and the sun was reflecting off of it so I couldn't see what color it was. It looked white, but that may have just been the reflected light. I watched it for a couple of minutes to see if it was a helicopter. I looked back to the road and when I looked back, it had vanished. There was a hot air balloon on the east side of the freeway.
