it's a higly urbanized area here but you are never far away from the forest, even from Frankfurt's city centre. One advantage of a non-contiguous, spread out metro area with dense development within the suburbs/towns.

Apparently some people in CT really hate drones.

Mind posting a photo or streetview of your neighborhood? Or one that's similar to yours?

Whoa. Didn't realize the conversation going on and I had posted this in the Photo thread. So will post here and delete that one since it fits in this conversation..

And here's East Norwalk which is 2 cities northeast of Stamford but only about 10 miles apart.

Neither reflect the area I'm in. I'm more denser with woods, much less homes around and wider roads.

Notice how tight the homes are with trees everywhere even being close to the coast..

Aren't drone vids the coolest? You should check out the ones on Iceland and Norway - you'll be blown away.

I foresee a possible new hobby in my future - and that's drone-flying.

It's funny... at this time last year--hell, at time time two months ago--the words I love Donald Trump would have been just about the last thing I'd ever say. Well, I still wouldn't exactly say those words today (in a state of sobriety), but it's fair to say my position on him has shifted considerably towards that sentiment.

Was about to go on a another bike ride today but 1.) looks like a big storm is headed here, lots of lightning and wind right now, not much rain so far. And 2.) My ass still hurts from the bike ride the other day....maybe I'll just go for a jog or something after the rain passes over.

What if he turns out to be the Republican Ross Perot and runs as an Independent if he doesn't get nominated? Would you still love him then when he hands the collection over to Hillary?

I currently live in the old town district, which is not really representative for most neighbourhoods. I will take a picture of typical suburban development tomorrow.

LMAO. Good. stupid kid. You don't do that at a beach. We're very big on privacy here but that's just plain stupid. So happy someone took their time and energy to stop that kid.

I have a big feeling those things will be banned soon by state or government. I mean people can be using it to spy on others backyards or see who's home or not.

Someone flew one over an airport. I believe it was a foggy day too. I believe they got caught after posting it youtube. I forget if they ended up making it a law now can't fly it over an airport.
