I’ve been playing around with my new Mavic Mini and today I took a long walk and ended up at Highland Park. It was nice and early in the morning so I took my Mavic Mini to see what I could see around the old country club. This has been made into walking trails and it is large and wide open so it made for a good place to practice. I did pretty well but there was one crash and it happened steps away from where I was. I had gotten the drone too close to some arborvitaes. I think I went up instead of down and next thing you know, it crashed.Luckily it was not from very high and there was no permanent damage. I can’t wait to take this to the Cape and get some great images around there. I have more to explore here around home, too.

Allies DonutsToday was national doughnut day. I still can’t figure out the difference between a doughnut and a donut. Apparently it is just spelling. But I think there is also a national Donut day. Yesterday Allison told me that Allie’s Donuts would be available at the Del’s in South Attleboro. So, after my walk I hopped int he car with my mask and waited for them to open. I was third in line but they had plenty and so I got a dozen. I then stopped at Honey Dew and picked up some coffees. I posted the donut image to Instagram and Honey Dew liked it. That was awkward. They are my go to donut place, too. So I commented back and told them I did stop there for the coffee.

Happy 100th Attleboro

Today the city of Attleboro celebrated its 100th Anniversary with a large citywide party. There was a huge parade and the lines in the street were painted red, white and blue. For a few weeks a large birthday cake was on the corner near Capron Park. I didn’t see the parade because I was sleeping for the day (work and all) but I did wake up around 3 and walked over to the park to check things out. There were food trucks, vendors and music. I would have liked to have gone to the celebration and seen the entertainment and fireworks. But at the same time it was so hot that I’m okay with not seeing more than I did when I walked over to the park. I think I experienced just enough.
