Southport Gazebo

Southport, North Carolina
October 05, 2017 by Matt Spangard

We visited Southport for the first time last weekend. It was a quintessential North Carolina coastal town with a waterfront stretch of a dozen restaurants and bars. We had a great time relaxing with the kids and Lori's parents and even ran into some old friends who used to be our neighbors 15 years ago (Hi Dena & Lisa!).

This photo was captured with a DJI Mavic pro drone and a PolarPro Cinema Series filter.

Kayak Break

Wild Dunes
August 04, 2017 by Matt Spangard

We were out on a bike ride last week at Wild Dunes when we took a little break near the intracoastal waterway. While we relaxed, I put the drone up to explore the marshlands between us and the ICW. That's the great thing about the DJI Mavic Pro. It's so small you can take it with you everywhere — even on a bike ride!

We came across these kayakers taking a break of their own just as the weather started shifting and the water turned into a spooky greenish pink. This almost looks like a sunset photo but it was captured around 10am. Rain started to move in so we quickly brought the drone home, packed it up and raced home on our bikes to beat the rain.

Harborside Suites at Little Harbor

Ruskin, Florida
May 19, 2017 by Matt Spangard

Happy Friday! The days are getting warmer (unless you live in Colorado) and the weekend is almost here — I hope you'll be spending it somewhere sunny and full of adventure. Like on a boat at the Harborside Suites at Little Harbor, just south of Tampa.

We've spent a lot of time at Little Harbor over the years on land and water and I wish I was typing this from one of those patios right now!

Little Harbor Marina

Ruskin, Florida
April 21, 2017 by Matt Spangard

We were at the Little Harbor Marina last Thursday for a little fishing in the bay. Our guide led us to some really good holes just off the shipping lanes and we managed to catch 2-3 keepers each in just a few hours. Most of the fish that we caught were Red Snapper and Sheepshead. I had never seen a Sheepshead before and they're apparently starting to catch on at restaurants.

They look like a giant Tiger Barb — their stripes have given them the nickname, "convict fish" by some — but what makes them truly unique is that they look like they have human teeth! Don't believe me? Google it. Once you get over the fact that they look like they're wearing dentures, they're actually a pretty tasty fish. 

This photograph was captured with a DJI Mavic Pro drone.
