More Drone Video

Well, Dave was able to compress rest of the video files to a much smaller size.
I couldn't decide which ones I liked better so I'm posting them all. These should be fun to watch next January.

Enjoy!

Drone Video

July 12. 2015

Came home yesterday. Uneventful day except Cosmo went ballistic when I tried to put him in his cage.
As for the heli video, luckily the SD card is OK and has lots of video on it. Unfortunately Blogspot doesn't allow videos over 100MB so only one is under that limit. I may see if I can reduce the file size for some of the others.






I also took several stills. Here are a couple of the better ones.







Back to work for now but we'll be back in about 2 weeks.

Went to the Bustards yesterday in the canoe. had a great day just putting around. The high water levels have opened up a lot of channels. You can now cut through the middle from the east side to Wicks Channel.

This is where we had lunch and refreshments (beer on the pier, right?). Right?






Strangely quiet here this week. Didn't see a soul other than Donny and family. They went home last night. No one at GBFC, again.

Found this little guy on one of the chairs this morning.






Actually caught a fish today. In fact I caught him twice a couple of minutes apart. He didn't fight much the second time. (Otter Bay, worm harness, in 10 ft of water, 3 PM) 
Just inside the slot as usual.


OOPS...What's this    ^^^

Once again, didn't see a single other person today. There's just nobody up here. Not complaining though.


I think I have some great drone video but I fried the micro SD/USB adapter so I won't know 'till I get home and see if there is anything on the card. If there is I'll post it later. I've got sunsets and everything!

July 2, 2015

A bit windy today but still nice. Went out in the canoe this afternoon and did a waterfall tour.
Both were near the rainbow camp.




Some signs of life at GBFC. The boat is there about every other day. "Mike" seems to be the guy in charge. Never more than 2 cabins rented at a time. Haven't seen Donny yet.
Saw a GBFC guest paddling one of the boats back to the dock a few nights ago.

After catching a mouse every night the first 5 nights, I haven't trapped one in the past 3 nights. Maybe we're over the hump. Found one trapped in the space heater by the windows a few nights ago. took the whole thing outside and let him go. Today a mouse (sure looked like the same one) ran across the rocks in front of Cosmo and disappeared under the cottage. Cosmo can still "move" if he wants to. Probably didn't turn out well for the mouse. Cosmo didn't eat his supper tonight.

Re-located the Lund ramp to a better place given the water levels.
We moved the Crawdad and Kiwi Canoe up with the Coleman canoe.

Dave goes back to the city today so say goodbye to the great video and pictures that he has given to this blog. Before he left he gave me a few  more gems. Thanks Dave, for these and all the help with dock, ramp etc.
