monkycndo 0 #13 March 24, 2008 0:4:0 Did 1 WS jump on Saturday then went to a jumper's house warming party. Very good time. Byron had PD demos, so took advantage of that on Sunday. Last jump of the day was #700. And it ended up being a reserve ride. And man did I love how that demo Optimum reserve opened and flew as my main.Skybytch, was there when your SO called BAS today. 50 donations so far. Give it a try.
