Evelyn 0 #1 January 16, 2005 I left my jacket at Eloy. It was a brand new really nice jacket. Realized I'd left it once I got home but then forgot about it. Got a PM from Bobby, one of my roommates at the Holiday Boogie, telling me that I'd left my jacket and he was giving it to Tonto to bring to Perris. Then got a PM from Tonto saying he had my jacket and what should he do with it. I had him leave it at manifest and they kept it for me until my friend from the UK who was staying at Perris picked it up and brought it to Elsinore to give to me. It may not seem like a big deal, the return of a jacket, but it just goes to show what great people skydivers are and how they take care of each other. So many thanks Bobby, Tonto, Perris Manifest staff, Stella and just skydivers in general for being such great people Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 January 16, 2005 That's cool. Its a cool little bit of traveling your jacket did without you as well. Skydivers kick ass.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonto 1 #3 January 16, 2005 Absolute pleasure! As it turned out we went through to Elsinore and jumped there before the weather closed in - kinda a recce to make sure your jacket would be OK. Please say Hi to Lob for me next time you're at Elsinore. We go back a very long way. Over 10 years, anyway! Stay cool, tIt's the year of the Pig.
