Not t' leadoff flight I expected, but I'm nay complaining.  Nice, long burn and a flight path that curved slightly t' t' right. Arrr!  Unfortunately t' soccer field was t' t' right. Aye aye!  Landed just behind t' last row o' cars and immediately drew a crowd, which dispersed quickly. Avast, me proud beauty!  T' two who were left carried it back t' me like it was goin' t' go off in their hands, but they were full o' questions.
