Dumpster 0 #1 April 21, 2003 Unless I missed it, seems late! 1:O:1 Case of beer for my C license! No jumping due to high winds and generally suck-ass weather, but my card came in Saturday's mail. C-33359. Got the engine running for my son's mini-bike, too! IT SCREAMS! (no governor-) Sad to hear about Holli - she'll be missed. Blue ones.

jceman 1 #4 April 21, 2003 47 putts on Capt'n Kidd's Adventure on Friday:2:0 Had some jumps on the books at Deland, so used them up on Saturday after a three hour delay for clouds. Also had two items of goods news; see my thread "Some Good News" for details. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

indyz 1 #5 April 21, 2003 0:0:0 3 weeks until my next paycheck. I can only afford to do one jump (for currency) between now and then. Is Sky Knights flying on Fridays? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #6 April 21, 2003 1:3:0 One lost friend (Blue Skies Holly, we're going to miss you). And only three jumps for the weekend due to being rained out on Saturday, staying up too late Saturday night and not being in the most chipper mood on Sunday. No beers owed.

ltdiver 3 #10 April 21, 2003 7 jumps with one very memorable dive with John Flemming, one of the most awesome and brave men I've ever met. He's got 1,901 skydives with over 500 since he went completely blind! The video we shot at Perris this weekend hit the news last night and the group raised over $5,000 for his organization, "American Council for the Blind". This fund raiser will help with getting new seeing eye dogs for the blind. Then one more incredible dive when the organizer of the above event, Mike Muscat, put a complete blindfold on himself and did a blind jump! From before walking to the plane clear through his landing! (talked down by radio like John Flemming has done over 500 times). A completely awesome day. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #12 April 21, 2003 1 (shitty ass weekend with bad news and a very very sick AggieDave): 2: 0 Yeah, this weekend sucked goat nutz. Lost a friend, I'm sick as a dog and only got 2 jumps due to weather (and being hopped off my ass on cold medication). If you count this past wednesday, I did my first jumps as a coach with a student. They went really well.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Stacy 0 #21 April 21, 2003 64:9:0 64 ounces of margarita drank on Friday in Ybor City. yikes. 9 jumps (we were a little slow moving) at the Easter Boogie. A new sequential world record set (2 point 120 way). GORGEOUS rainbow over the DZ on Friday afternoon. Wednesday evening was quite intersesting. Invading random RVs and partying, "borrowing" a car to go into town, and a few premature wake up calls. nothing but trouble. easter pics are at: http://www.stacyinthesky.com/easter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
