My First Dronie

My First Aerial Photo/Video

While boondocking near Borrego Springs, CA, I had a chance to experiment with my new 3DR Iris+ drone "quadcopter". One of the features of this system is the ability to make a quick "dronie".

A Month in Europe - What it Cost

So it's up to me to "try" and keep this blog current. For the past few months, we've been having fun.
