AggieDave 6 #3 December 8, 2003 Heh, wonder if she's a poster? I searched for her name, but it didn't come up. That doesn't mean anything, though.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaaska 0 #6 December 8, 2003 Quotehttp://www.bankrate.com/cweb/news/cc/20020625a.asp Mentioned this place... Quote...The Finland trip was about two weeks long for about $4,000 including air. We had five days in cabins with rented dog sleds and guides. You had to dig out the outhouse at night, and there were no showers. We spent two nights in a resort with hot springs, a night in the ice castle, did some snowmobiling and swam off an icebreaker in these big rubber suits. ... Hot springs? In Finland?

PhreeZone 20 #9 December 8, 2003 She wrote some story years ago about her first WFFC and moving onto a DZ in FL or something. Since she jumped the jet at WFFC and it has'nt been around for at least 4 or 5 years... I'm not sure how current she is but I know shes an actual jumper.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
