flyangel2 2 #53 January 10, 2005 OMG, look at the amount of weight Jen has lost since that Tandem jump. Maybe that's why she is kicking ass, she doesn't have any ass leftMay your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

heidihagen 0 #54 January 10, 2005 Quoteawww You're making me blush JP. Ya, not a surprise that it went well... but I'll have to watch a bunch of people landing today - that stuff's a bit scary Thanks for the kind words Jeni went to watch landings today too. i'm sure i'll get used to it soon enough, but they make it look TOO easy! i wish they had a little padding on the seat maybe 3rd time will be a charm...nobody lands like that forever! have fun mailin! i didn't lose my mind, i sold it on ebay. .:need a container to fit 5'4", 110 lb. cypres ready & able to fit a 170 main (or slightly smaller):.[/ce Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #55 January 10, 2005 QuoteBTW, Jen did her hop n pop and has finished her AFF. Now she is working towards her A License. Woohoo, congrats, Jen! I can't believe how quickly you went through your training. You're kicking butt, girl! Looks like you'll have good weather until Friday. Get those jumps in!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I forgot to thank you for picking up those goggles for me - they've been a lifesaver!! We had so much fun visiting with you - even though the mexican food came back to haunt me when I finally got back to the hotel room Sunday morning... and then add the plane dive on my hop and pop and my stomach was not right all day. Serves me right for getting the insanity sauce Thanks again Andrea - did you notice what I wrote in your little book? JenArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mailin 0 #72 January 11, 2005 QuoteThat would be Uncle Mike! LMAO!! It's a good thing Mar didn't see my crash today Mike - I can see visions of her fretting over all the mud on not only the rig and jumpsuit, but the helmet and my face. I had a good laugh - but I bet she'd be freaking out... much like my mom would, but I wouldn't imagine letting her watch me skydive, so I guess Mar is a good substitute... But I promise to call her tomorrow so she doesn't bug you LMAO - still laughing about it. It was sure nice to see you today though - made me smile JenArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
