(bet she wishes i would take it to the bar so she can watch the live feed and keep an eye on me lol) but all in all that was an awesome video. hope your winter warms up

That was just a compilation of some higher speed runs when I was bored. Here`s a few more: https://www.youtube.com/user/8YOURMA/videos
I usually have a live feed on my tablet mounted above the cuddy door. The only downfall of having the wifi turned on; it`s battery killer!
I`m waiting for the autonomous drones to get faster, that is the future of the ultimate footage. They are getting better .. this one will do 45mph.

Look into the Brunton Battery Pack for the GoPro. Best money I ever spent, lasts 8 hours of run time minimum and is powerful enough to charge your phone. I ran my GoPro the entire Key West weekend, used it for still photos too and only charged it once and it was still at 1/3 battery left.

Left the house this morning *31. It's got up to 41* now but that's about it for the next couple days with overnights in the low, low 20's. WTF? I live in Maryland. We have had winters that it didn't get below freezing. It's been going on so long this winter that never ends 31* this morning was hoody weather.

31 is hoody weather, isn't that sad? Last week it was in the mid 40's here and I saw people on motorcycles, people in convertibles with the top down, and people hitting balls at the driving range. No doubt in my mind if there wasn't snow on the golf coarse they would've been out there.

actually no.....if you are close to the coast and not in a mangrove patch then bugs aren't terrible. I don't even have a screen enclosure over my pool!

I experienced worse bugs in NH and Mass in the summertime and on both occasions it was hotter up there in the summer than it was at my house that day!

I love winter but I`m over it now.

Maybe this will help my Midwest peeps:

I'm guessing this would be a really bad time to say we didn't even have winter, such as it is, in Northern California this year.
