May 20, 2025 - Funfly Eastern Shore - Sassafras River
Today's weather was decent for flying -- warm, high scattered layer, light winds -- so I took advantage and went for a funfly after pickleball.  I headed over to the Eastern Shore and did most of my flying around the Sassafras River, pictured here.
   
This mansion has a huge front lawn.
   
Not sure what this mansion & complex is, but its big parking lot is full.
   
Another mansion, although this one is small.
   
But it had this impressive tree-lined road leading up to it.
   
I think they did a much bigger mansion to go with the magnificent tree-lined driveway.
   
Back on the Sassafras River.
   
Flying up one of the many creeks off the Sassafras.
   
Heading for Lloyd's Creek sand bar -- a favorite spot for boaters.  But not today.
   
Heading up one of the offshoots of Lloyd's Creek.
   
And back down another off shoot.
   
Looking down at a sandbar populated only by seagulls.
   
Passing by an abandoned fire-watch tower.
   
Deer!
   
Wild turkey!  Plus a couple of deer.
   
Intricate patterns in the grass.
