lekstrom10k 0 #1 August 17, 2012 I made 70 sky dives for my 70th birthday yesterday at Midwest free Fall Sport Parachute Center in Ray MI.It was for a fund raiser for Leader Dogs for the blind.It took 10 hours and 3 minutes to complete. After the third weather delay we finally got off the ground.Wedidnt have as many packers as planned with the delays. We flew in Ryan Wetzels C-182 that he flew. He got 74 take offs and landings in an 11 hour period, his best so far It was filmed locally ,but I heard it was on CNN also. The manager of Leader Dogs was an inactive sky diver too. We have a web site 70for 70.org with a paypal account and details of Leader Dogs and me . Thanks ahead if anyone wants to help out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bertt 0 #7 August 17, 2012 Good for you. I watched a guy half your age do half that many jumps on his birthday. He was worn out. I was impressed. Now I'm doubly impressed.You don't have to outrun the bear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
