Last week Neal and I spent Saturday at the U of U Basketball game. There was an alumni brunch and the basketball game all for the price of (?). So we headed off to the brunch where, of course, Neal ran into a person who used to live across the street from his parents. He knew know one from the alumni group but connected with someone from his past. He had a nice visit and then off to the basketball game at 2 p.m. It was a good game and we had good seats and Utah won. After the game we had to work our way across campus to get to our car. As we were coming down the steps of one of the buildings we saw a young man standing in the middle of the sidewalk with a control box in his hand and high above his head was a small (what looked like) flying saucer. We stopped and watched and asked questions. It was a flying camera! He could control the apparatus and the tiny camera inside it. Neal and I were fascinated. I’ve heard about them on the news but never see one close up. Kind of creepy to think that you could go out in your back yard and someone could be spying on you from above! By the way, we took these two pictures for Tucker to actually prove that I was at a game and drinking a coke out of a Utah cup! Who would have ever thought!
If you look closely at the second picture you can see the flying camera just to the right of the young man and he has the controls in his hands. The black dot you see on the saucer above me is the actual camera lens. You can also see that it has four propellers. Interesting!
