freebird 0 #1 March 14, 2002 Getting to the drop zone early on a sunny day. The temp is about 70 degrees. There are not many people just enough for the load. You have a brand new rig and canopy. The early morning smell of jet fuel gives you a sense of peace. You ride the climb to altitude is calming.The green light goes off at 13,500. You get to the door the nice cool rush of wind blows in your face as you jump.Your alone and have a nice little freefly. You pull about 4 and do a couple of 360's.You look up and see a beautiful and know it is yours. It feels like part of you. Everyone elese has landed you cruz in with a nice swoop on your feet on this no wind day (SWEET) ! You gather up the slack of your canopy throw it over your shoulder and head for hanger.You notice more jumpers gathering to the dz. You take off the rig and go sit on the grass with a cup of coffee and a bagle and know it will be a perfect day!The longer you wait ........the more sense you get.
