FreeFlyFreaky 0 #1 June 10, 2001 On Saturday, June 9, 2001, a man drove up to our DZ,Skydive America Palm Beach, with a bag he found on I-95. He wanted $40 for his troubles of locating us, plus his driving time. I glady paid him. I just lost a wallet two weeks ago with no money in it but would have paid twice that for it to be returned.Inside the bag were invoices and other items with the name Matt O'Gwynn. We called around to some other DZ's to see if anyone knew him...no luck. So we don't think he is local to Florida. There are rigger's tools and other items of value that I'm sure the owner will want returned.So, Rigger Matt O'Gwynn are you out there? Do any of you know this guy?If so, please contact me either through this forum or email me directly.Thanks,Whitgwhitson@bellsouth.net Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
