JENNR8R 0 #2 October 22, 2007 Hey Gary, that was a fun skydive. I hope you and your Mom enjoy visiting us. Let me know what you end up seeing. Maybe it will inspire me to do some sightseeing here. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lexington, Concord, the old north bridge: birthplaces of the revolution that made America. Thoreau's Walden pond. All within easy drive from Orange.

He asked me what was worth seeing around here, and I told him that I travel to go sightseeing. It never occurs to me to look in my own backyard most of the time.

DanG 1 #5 October 22, 2007 I'm no history major, but last I checked Lexington, Concorde, et al. were pretty far from central Virginia. Methinks you are confusing Jumptown, located in Orange, Mass, with Skydive Orange located in Orange, Virginia. Oh, and it was nice to meet you, Gary. Stop by any time. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JENNR8R 0 #6 October 22, 2007 Phew, what a relief! I didn't know Walden Pond was anywhere near here. I'm glad to find out that it isn't. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beachbum 0 #7 October 22, 2007 Don't worry ... weights will be my next gear purchase, so "next time" I'll have my own to throw on, so y'all won't have to work so hard to float with me ... the ones I used last weekend at Aggieland were borrowed. And yep ... sure think John got dz's confused there ... .. I'll see if I can't find a way to straighten him out when I get home ... Dan ... I don't get up this way real often ... but it was definitely worthwhile, so the visit would be a definite repeat if I get back in the area ... thanks again!!
