The weather in Atlanta appeared as if it was going to be very poor this weekend... so Saturday morning I decided to drive to Ohio and spent the evening with the family...

Sunday I drove over to Skydive Greene County (its only 25 minutes from my parents place) and did a couple of RW jumps.

Thanks to Robin for introducing me to the DZ (aka helping me locate the DZ from the air get me involved with the RW Organizer...)

I will have to find somewhere to leave Karma for the day because Pets aren't allowed at SGC... (I might have a place though B|)

Rain? What rain? It was just a few sprinkles! :P

I was jumping the same place as you and my numbers for the weekend were 0:14:1 :)
My first was a 13k cross country! Okay, it didn't qualify because it wasn't 10 miles. More like 5 I think, although it probably could have been 15 and we would have still made it back. Still, a great way to end the weekend! Nothing like a nice slow canopy ride from 13k to get out of the summer AZ heat for a while!

7 jumps.

Great weekend.:)Demoed another canopy and loved it.
1st landing was interesting the rest were ok.

Sunday- Rain-one hop& pop-and one rodeo.
Grass was very wet and slippery so I figured I would dry it with my ass a 100 feet at a time.:P:D

1 Class 4 whitewater rapid swam by myself and 3 other DZ.commers : 5 : 0

Good weekend! I jumped all day Saturday. We got in a good hybrid and a few fun RW jumps, and finished the day with a sunset cross country.

On Sunday morning I took Derek, Kelli, Andre and a few others whitewater rafting in the Royal Gorge. Coming into one of the bigger rapids we hit a rock, almost flipping the boat and throwing everyone but Andre into the river. A few people took some longer swims, but everyone was fine. B| All in all it was a great weekend.

6 fun jumps trying to improve my freefly skills (man do they need it)
1 RW trying to slow down the Anvil.
[Beer] for my 200th, just wanted to do something fun and it turned int to a 13-way hybrid attempt, and no we didn't make it but it was still fun.

16 amazing jumps at the Prairie, including my PMS initiation jump, the honor of participating on a 100th jump (congrats monkycndo) and a 200th (congrats to Todd)... if only we could have gotten SeaKev to do his 300th, I could have helped funnel THREE milestone jumps! Also did a whole bunch of goofy-ass jumps, and ate lots and lots of Prairie dust. Beer for first jump at LP, and first Skyvan jump.

:)s to count

18 awesome jumps at LP. Even at the higher altitude, had great landings. Tried new stuff. Horny gorilla with hanging exit out of the skyvan with Gia, 9 way flying carpet (what a feeling to get pulled off your feet out of the skyvan), 6 way hybrid, 3 way tube with NWFlyer and mcneill79 that we held until my main cover popped open at 6K and Krisanne said see ya, funnelled my 100th- but still got it back together for a 3 way horny gorilla, helped funnel Todd's 200th, spectacular crosscountry at sunset and 1st jumps with lots of new people including some of you dizzy.com'ers.
50 donations so far. Give it a try.
