This Saturday Emily and I headed to the coast with Leo for a hike and to do some filming and flying practice with the Mavic Pro. The rain held off and I got some great footage over Canon Beach from Ecola State Park as well as some wonderful orbiting shots from the top of Neahkahnie Mountain. Read on.
This weekend I flew to Fort Wayne, IN to surprise my daughter Ellie for her School Daddy-Daughter Dance. Weeks ago she had told me over text she had something to ask me but then she never worked up the courage to actually do it, probably thinking I wouldn’t be able to come.

Having felt incredibly guilty for not bringing Leo up to Mt.

Emily and I had a great day up on Mt. Hood skinning up the Glade Trail and down the Alpine Trail between Government Camp and Timberline Lodge. We left Leo home because we thought it would be too much for him but it was a mistake as the weather was great and he would have made it just fine.

I got some great aerial shots of the mountain and skiers on the slopes of Timberline as well as some shots tracking Emily as she skied down before I was out of batteries. Great day!
This past September marked 10 years I have been living in Oregon and never have I seen so much snow fall in the valley before. I stuck a ruler on our table outback and it measured just under a foot of snow overnight! What a great time to have a hot tub! Read on…
This weekend Emily and I headed down to Corvallis for the much anticipated wedding of Chris Holm (Best Man in my wedding) and Paris Edwards. The plan was to stay with Jason and Jenn on Friday night after their dinner for out of town gets as well as after their wedding Saturday night. I brought all my camera gear down but left my drone at home as the weather looked too sketchy to fly… man was that an understatement. Read on…
