craig_b 0 #1 September 18, 2004 Hi to everyone. I graduated my level 8 AFF 2 weeks ago and have done 5 solos since then. Big 15 total jumps. I look forward to the mentoring of senior jumpers, especially any that are around my home DZ of Perris, CA. I got my first thriller of thermals and dancing away from a big dust devil last weekend on jump #15 and found all of the old timers advice well worth every word. I really love this sport and to all....... Blue Skies! Craig _________________________________________ once you've experienced flight, you forever walk the ground with your head pointed skyward.

craig_b 0 #4 September 19, 2004 Point well taken and my appologies. Maybe well experienced skydivers is a better term. Heck, I'm 54 so I'm a baby and an old guy all in one. Thank you for the advice. _________________________________________ once you've experienced flight, you forever walk the ground with your head pointed skyward.
