flyangel2 2 #2 June 2, 2004 I wasn't able to attend the boogie, but I have one great memory from the weekend. My oldest son's High School Graduation. I only wish that his father was still alive to see just how wonderful he turned out. Yes, I cried and cried, but was so proud.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dgskydive 0 #4 June 2, 2004 Quote- dgskydive's expression when I flashed him at the tunnel. That was my BIGGEST memory! ~Seeing you and Prusha in the tunnel together. ~Seeing Bob get his face painted after he passed out by the fire. ~Watching all the .commers hit the tunnel for the first time and how much some of them learned in just 10 minutesDom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #5 June 2, 2004 We got weathered out, with wind and thunderstorms all weekend. Craichead and I skipped jumping, and instead went hiking. I had no idea that there were trees in Illinois. We drove a few hours out to Starved Rock State Park, and did some of the easiest hiking I've ever seen. It was rediculous, most of the trails had stairs whenever they encountered a hill. We were both struck by the beauty of the park. Anytime a Chicago local can't jump, this place is worth a trip. Highlights were definately French Canyon and WildCat canyon, both easy walks from the visitors center. No pictures, cuz I'm an idiot and forgot the camera in the car. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
