Mine : "This summer i'm going to jump with more newbies and buy more beer." That i did, as much as i could. Well, since I broke my ankle four days after the Memorial Day weekend ...the answer would be a big freakin "NO". I did not meet my skydiving goals this summer. My injury didn't stop me from going to Rantoul, though and/or living vicariously through my friend's skydiving achievements! At least I can be happy for them, right? Editd: Good for you for making the best of things whilst injured, Jef! Congrats Alana for meeting your goals, as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
