Memorial Day weekend - in FL! (aka skymama in flight!)

Recommended Posts

so.... after having a great time in WI (pics tomorrow or Thursday night, yep, Cora - the tape is fixed), I worked a couple of days in Chicago then flew to FL. On Thursday, Sean (Science) and I headed to Z-Hills for a couple (actually wanted to do at least 3 but the clouds rolled in) Sean is hanging at 599 jumps now.. Here are a few pics of Science... not bad for our first jumps together and the fact that the boy was blowing the rust off... huh?

so... on Saturday, I took my babies to Busch Gardens.. Jack just turned 3 and Sarah had her 7th b-day on Sunday.. I was amazed that Sarah was riding all the big rides... major roller coasters and the boat that goes upside down... by herself! Jack and I watched.. :P They also went on plenty of kiddie rides as Sarah is very kind to her little brother...

Sunday was Sarah's birthday and we hung around my mother's house all day swimming, playing games and since they both got fishing rods for their birthdays, we loaded them into the golf cart and went over to one of the lakes on the golf course they live on... it was pretty cute. ;)

Monday came and it was time to jump with skymama at Z-Hills.. the weather was perfect.. and... we got to meet Sunnydee, Thighman (his avatar is kinda gay), MarcandAlysse and HeatherB.. It was a lot of fun.. Although we focused on 2-ways, we did do one jump with Sunnydee... so.. check out the chicks! B|B|B|B|:PB|

All in all.. I only got 7 jumps in between Thursday and Monday, but my Memorial Day weekend rocked!

Its always nice to see someone having fun.



I had fun for 5 minutes for the 5 jumps....the rest of the day I didn't because Roy made me pack. :P

Actually, that was the best head down jump that I've ever done so it was really fun! I just need to work on my head down fall rate though because I sunk out on someone who outweighs me by 70 pounds! :S

Well, you got Chris Hayes' attention in the Freefly forum. He has a camera, so start batting your eyelashes in his direction. ;)

Thighman (his avatar is kinda gay),

Patrick looks much better in real life.




Inside joke....Patrick asked us if his avatar looked gay, so of course we had to say yes and run with it! :ph34r:

Thanks Mary, but I do have a LONG CHAIN that gets pulled every now and then.. :P We did a C-130 jump at about 1000 with a -1B Round. Would you believe that I got my feet caught in the risers and tried to break my Swooping Neck?... Ouch. But the landing was Smooth and I could have stood it up.
You guys take care and I'll see you in Rantoul.

OK - so any clue what reg. cost is? I don't see it anywhere, unless I am blind. I'm gonna check out flights out that way but not sure that one will happen. I need to chill out with my traveling or I'll have to sell my house and live out of a camper - in order to keep jumping. Plenty of time to travel, I am just getting started.

Jp, I made sure I got my B and C license over the weekend so I won't have any problems doing my night jumps in the "fully lit landing area". I like that part the best! :ph34r:

Fully lit landing area? Where is this? I am making my 100th this weekend and will have my C...would love to utilize that fully lit landing area as well and if Skymama was going to be there also - added bonus. Talk to me.........

I believe the registration fee is only like $25.00. I'll definitely be there, I've had my tickets for months for my big trip out west that's starting with the "Skymama Boogie" :P in Kapowsin and ending with me in a raft at The American Boogie. B|
