\"\"<\/a>On a very white, overcast day recently I decided to pay a visit to an old friend, a house that I’ve liked to check in on frequently that isn’t too far from my property.\u00a0 I took the opportunity to explore a few new angles, as I had some drone batteries I needed to run down to 50%.<\/p>\n
