Editor’s note: Speaking of views, you may notice that I have changed the theme on this website. I took down advertisements since no one was paying me regularly. I am going to try to re-work things over the summer and maybe add some new features. Please get in touch if you are an Oregon Hill resident who knows a bit about WordPress and would like to help. Just please be committed…I have had people in the past who have not lasted long at all. This site could certainly generate some good part-time income and benefits for the right person.)

The Poles
From yesterday evening…

Oregon Hill is full of the remnants of old art projects.

Drone Flight Video
From description on YouTube
On this windy and quite cold day I took a flight with my DJI Spark after first taking the same flight on the same route with my XIAOMI MI 4K from the Oregon Hill neighborhood in Richmond VIrginia to the MLK bridge across the James river. This is a particularly beautiful spot in our city and many people take photos from it or of it. I am trying to learn the ins and outs of photography as well as learning how to fly a drone (so please try to be patient while watching knowing that improvements are coming in fast!).
Happy Thanksgiving

An Old Parking Mishap
Photo courtesy of William Pickett. Probably from the 1980’s.

This is what can happen when a parked car is left in drive, or first gear, on a slight hill, without the manual brake on.
