Shortly after our trip to Tahoe, Steve went on a little trip with some friends to fly RC helicopters at an abandoned factory in Nevada. The factory is covered in graffiti and is set to be torn down later this year. I can only imagine how fun it must have been to fly their copters through the old windows and doorways. I’m always amazed at what a different view they can offer. Sometimes Steve lets me wear his goggles while he flies, it’s pretty awesome. On the way home they crossed the new Bay Bridge, something I haven’t been able to do yet.

    1. Most of his footage is a Go Pro but he has a couple of other cameras that are very small and light (for smaller copters).

  26. oh my gosh! I love your blog because of all the awesome pictures! And flying through that building is amazing. Crazy that something that “pretty” will be torn down. Truly a piece of art!
