  1. Yeah, the general opinion seems to be that I'm working towards a second childhood. Now for you mister.......................... How about "Mr. Notreallyancient"? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  2. LisaH seems to think I check the weather forecast too often. I figure if you check it often enough, it'll be right one in a while. Now.... a name for LisaH since she got me involved in this thread............. How about "Udderly Delecious"? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  3. Good grief! You'd think by now I would know better than to click on a turtle link. sheesh
  4. And to think I just wished you a Happy Birthday. sheesh
  5. :2:0 I'd say "just two" but from the looks of the posts here so far, I think that better be "Woo hoo!!!! Two jumps" This year has sure been better than last year. I had one jump in February and my next one wasn't until the end of April. And I'm headed to California next weekend. Anybody in the Sacramento/Davis/Lodi area want to come play with me?

  6. Yep! I was just sure that something was going to go wrong. My sigh of relief when that canopy opened so nicely could probably have been heard on the ground. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  7. Boy, I had to look that one up. It was jump number 10. Been packing my own ever since almost every jump. I spluge on a packer once in a while IF I know and trust the packer. Grandma I may be............ helpless I'm not. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  8. If someone else is packing your rig, how do you expect to learn. You will be far off if you have someone watch your packing until you are more confident in your abilities that if you pay someone else to pack it.
  9. Another grandmother here. And I'm almost 59 and just started jumping a little over a year ago. I did one tandem and couldn't wait to do it myself. I started AFF the next month.... in winter....... in idaho. Brrrrr "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
