larsrulz 0 #101 August 16, 2004 Quote 1 balloon + 1 balloon chase into Indiana 2 Birdmans Were you on the wednesday morning baloon chase too? Were you in the front seat of the mini van with the lady who kept taking wrong turns? And you're the second sub-500 person to post about making birdman jumps. What's with that? I would have been to 200 jumps by monday morning had I known they weren't following the 500 jump rule. I got a strong urge to fly, but I got no where to fly to. -PF Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChasingBlueSky 0 #105 August 16, 2004 I'll get to them eventually...I have a lot to go through and I will only post the good ones after some color correction (re: it will take me some time). I lost a few good ones due to that camera not being of top end quality in ISO settings or from the automatic lens cover that didn't always open._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

WFFC 1 #108 August 16, 2004 Ahhh...The list. There are a few people that arrived before I did, but other than the setup crew, there weren't many. So, memories: ~getting the internet cafe up and running with Cajones, Chango and Pabellon and not having too many issues through the week. ~Webcams up and running. ~Don and other senior staffers wondering where the hell the WebTeam was hiding the Bell 412 that was on one of the cams daily. ~An email from a friend with simply - Thank you - in reference to the webcams. ~being able to cross the catwalk in hangar 2 without incident. (Heights don't bother me, but I prefer to have something solid beneath my feet, not a grate) ~Catching the last of the cypres fire on top of hangar 2 with Casie. ~Stupid human trick awarded to the two who landed the Mr. Bill in front of the FAA. ~hanging with Grafico for a few days. ~swooping a tandem with Bill Clayton, the airport manager. ~Bill Clayton telling his 'Dollar Ride' story around the campfire and then presenting Ralph with a framed dollar. ~Nightly fires in Camp Colorado with friends and anyone else who decided to stop by. ~seeing video of 2 separate on plane mals (one being the canopy over the otter tail, other was a pilot chute out in the King Air - Good catch Elvisio) ~learning that SDA has a new owner, than being corrected by the present owner since it was news to him. ~Helicopter jump with Ralph and Hairy. ~New custom suit from Sherry @ Firefly. ~one stolen golfcart (and being a bit suprised by who took it - and how many others they 'borrowed') and finally ~the last official load of the WFFC: Balloon jump with Cajones, Lew, Mar and Norman Kent. Shane, thanks for the extra altitude. Needless to say, I can't wait till the prints from Norman Kent arrive. Need some new wall candy to remember this year by. Until next year, be safe and watch out for one another.----- ~~~Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fast 0 #110 August 16, 2004 I had a great time this year at rantoul.... Met a bunch of people briefly, hung out with some more than others (missimperfect/rosa/cocheese) Ended up with a total of 22 jumps in 5 days which kept me busy and tired... Next year need to just hang out more and jump a little less... Helicopters and baloons are lots of fun... Wish I would have spent more time hanging out at the tent, will next year. I think the security gaurd who indyz and bo stole the golfcart from was dazed and confused that anyone would even think of doing that... guess he hasn't spent much time around skydivers ~D Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me.

Other balloon/van, Paula was on my load, but ended up riding with you guys after landing in the cemetary. I was a little shocked that the cemetary workers were so casual when we asked if they saw her: "yep, she landed right over there about 5 minutes ago and jumped in a van with a trailer."

"Bo, you're in the bean field." *BOOM*, cart bottoms out: "I think that was a ditch." I went and looked at that ditch the next day - I'm surprised the cart made it thru it and over it! I blame it all on those Jello shots. Mel must have fed me about 20 in 30 minutes...they don't seem strong at the time, but they all hit you at once! That's what you get when you trust the innocent looking bar staff of Viking and Liz! I find it funny they were selling Jello shots in such volume they were handing them out in shopping bags. I'm glad you were there to give me direction Brian, otherwise I think I would have gotten lost._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....
