Andy is a friend of ours, and he’s a really smart guy. Andy has a secret, though:

Andy has a drone. (OK, it’s really a DJI Phantom 2 Quadcopter. He also has Google Glass.)

Over the Memorial Day weekend, Mary and I hosted family and some friends for a cookout and hangout. Our friend Andy here brought his drone to share. The cool thing about this device? It has a mount for a GoPro camera, meaning you can fly it in the air and take really sweet aerial shots of things. It sounds like two swarms of bees, and looks like this when flying:

Andy was nice enough to take a bunch of shots of our house and share them with us. I think they’re pretty awesome (thanks Andy!)
