JP's visit and flying the new drone

 We had a little sunshine this afternoon so I got my new drone out and made a flight with it.  I tested the return to home feature right away and it landed about 18 inches from where it took off.
I went up quite a bit higher than I did with Barry's and took this picture of the house.  It looks like it's roof needs cleaning also.

I went up a little higher and you can see Betty Finkas's house and shop.
This afternoon Anne Marie brought JP by for a visit as they were on their way home from Vancouver.
JP and Chole knew right where the toys were from their last visit and started playing right away.  Chole found the puzzle Vera had ordered and started putting it together.
It only seemed like a couple of minutes and she was done.
JP had the helicopter loaded with cars and had a good time playing with it.
It wasn't long before they had most of the toys out and Leia the youngest one was right in the middle of things.
The older kids moved into the dining room area and Leia wouldn't go in there because the helicopter scared her.  Vera told Anne Marie about my blog and got one of the blog books out to show her.
JP really enjoys the Hot Wheels we have.  They didn't stay too long as they had a 4 hour drive to home.
We made a quick run to Safeway this evening and took a couple of pictures of lights.  As we came down the driveway there was several vehicles stopped on the other side of the road with a police car that had its overhead lights on.  It looked like a couple of officers standing out there as well.  We also went by a wrecked pickup on Pleasant Hill Rd that was in the ditch with the back end out into the road.  When we came back it was sitting on the shoulder and the front was banged up pretty good
Castle Rock's lights sure look good, I took this as I went in to get the mail.  Vera did some baking for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day this evening.  It was a busy day but we sure enjoyed it.

Optometry and the 49er

 I had an 8:10 Optometry appointment this morning.  The vision in my right eye had been getting more and more blurry the last few months.  I...
