Drone flight over melting ice on a Cape Cod kettle pond YouTube video by Ocean Devotion

Good morning! I have something a little different for you today—a short drone flight over a frozen kettle pond.

(Getting in some flight practice before an exciting upcoming trip! 👀)

The ice is finally melting!

South-facing, next to the house. Could be why.

Yesterday a snow bank. Today, this. A welcome sight in central Connecticut. In the 70s near 80 today. So we will call it winsprummer.

Each month has a different moon name. The blood moon was referring to Tuesday’s eclipse and the color it turned.

When I first heard my son is moving out of state with his girlfriend.

The clay level is the coolest. You can put that right on a potter’s wheel and go to town creating a work of art.

My wife baked Tollhouse chocolate chip cookies today. Haven’t had them in years.

Me: “How come you don’t make these more often?”
Wife: “Because you eat them all in like a couple days.”
Me: “What are you talking about? I do not.”

Later today after sneaking my eighth cookie.

Me: “She may be right.”

Gotta be well over 30 years since it has snowed like this out there. Embrace it!
