Headland is just outside Dothan, Al. I've never been there so I know nothing about it. Gold Coast Skydiving is just over in MS. Never been there either. Those are the only two within reasonable driving distance from Ft Walton as far as I know. (But what the heck do I know.):)

Well I GUESS I could go a weekend without jumping.....BUT NOT IF I CAN HELP IT and it is always fun to put another location in the old log book ;)

Emerald Coast (AL) is an hour west of where I'll be, thinking that might not be too bad. Didn't think about Mississippi. Hmmm........

That's impressive. And here I thought I was the only obsessed person (NOT) since I've also managed to make at least one jump every weekend since late January (and my bank account is now almost empty to prove it). :S


Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

Checked out Gold Coast and it for sure sounds sweet but it is better then 2 hours from where I'll be and I am already driving 8 hours to get to my pals house...who is being "shipped out" for God knows how long so that has to be my real priority....Figure while they sleep in from all there drinking Friday night I can sneak out Saturday morning and do a few jumps and sneak back home before I am missed ;).

from what iv'e heard you ask the pilot on your last jump and he will dump you where you can swoop in to the florabama bar on the beach. that's heresay tho

Than never to have loved at all.

Good choice. hey have a permanent NOTAM filed for beach landings, so they put loads out over the beach several times a day depending on who wants to go and the conditions.

Do it. It rocks.

Have fun!
