Running my Little RC Boat down my street in Buena Park today

I was about an hour too late from the high water mark when all the flooding rain water was up past the curb and making its way to the sidewalk around the corner from my house. It's a rare treat in my city and I wanted to make the most of it. A couple of years ago, the rain water was up to the curb and I had plenty of water to run full throttle down the street and never met the pavement.

By the time my battery was charged up, much of the water had run its course and headed to the Pacific Ocean. I decided to risk it and run my little RC boat where the water was not so shallow. I had to mount my DJI Osmo Action camera on my cap ands tried my best to keep the umbrella out of the view of the camera. I ran aground a few times and had to wade out to nudge the little boat back into the relative safety of deeper water. It was a little sketchy at times but I just felt like being a big kid for a little bit which I am known to do at times. The boat survived my little stunt. Next time I'll take it to the park at Cerritos and let it run full throttle without the perils of concrete curbs and rough pavement. William Flying39
