jceman 1 #26 April 12, 2006 WOOT! Great to hear, Rosa. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites yoink 321 #35 April 13, 2006 Cool! I'm going to be making my first jump for 18 months this weekend - I guess there's a bug going round! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Shotgun 1 #36 April 13, 2006 Congratulations, Rosa! Oh man, I've been thinking about the sky a lot lately, but I don't think that I'm quite ready to get current again because I'm a little too distracted by other things right now. I can't even remember when my last jump was, but I remember what happened on the last jump because it left a little dent in my left tibia! Hmm, I guess I should have gotten back in the air right after that, because taking a long break after a bad jump is probably not the best idea... But I'm really glad to hear that you're back in the sky. I know the feeling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jumpwally 0 #37 April 13, 2006 Nooiiiccee !!!

Are ya gonna hit 300 this year? Of course, I will, Wally! I had almost 200 within just over a year in the sport, but then, I broke my ankle and stopped jumping for half a year. I returned for about 4 days of skydiving over the next few months, afterwards. The, I decided to stop jumping, again. This last skydiving "hiatus" was for just over a year. I stopped skydiving because my grandmother was on her death bed this whole last year, and I didn't want to be jumping, when I could be helping my mother (who never asked me, but needed me there with her through this) and grandmother (who seemed to be better when her family was around). I can't tell you how many times that we took my grandmother to the hospital. It was really touch and go for a while...and all of this went on and on and on. We had time at night to relax, after my grandmother saw her night nurses, so I was able to go to the tunnel every so often to fly in the evening. I also was able to see my friends at the Bombshelter. My grandmother is finally over that scary stage, which is nothing short of a miracle at her age, but she still requires 24 hour care. My mother has people help her to take care of her at home. It's a lot of work, but we now have a routine. (Also, my own health had given me problems, during this time. There was just so much going on...) Now, everything seems to be on the up and up, so I HAD to begin jumping again. It's my passion. Even though I don't have the money right now. I will still find a way to do it!
