LouDiamond 1 #1178 September 30, 2006 HIGH: Having received a Holly Hug LOW: Not being able to get another one Heres to you Holly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY. "Rock out with your cock out!" "Every day I realize more and more how perfectly wonderful life is. I am truly blessed to just be here, enjoying this moment. Putting these mere words on paper can't nearly describe my diverse range of emotions felt on a daily basis. I am but one soul standing at the tip of an iceberg cascading down, called life. Perhaps I should rephrase this. I am at the bottom staring up upon this angelic, crystallized, God-sent perfection, on my journey up."

Low: Waking up at 6PM and realizing another day has slipped away. You only wake up so many times. Yes, I know it is snowing. No, we are not putting the top up.

KawiZX900 0 #1189 May 21, 2007 High: 1) oh yeah. I'd elaborate but why jinx myself when things are finally going my and our companies way. 2) Good thoughts about Holly finding their way into my head at random the last couple weeks completely out of the blue. "Rock Out W/Your Cock Out" being the one that had me laughing out loud today. mixed with more serious reflection on what it meant/means to me to have had a great friend in her. Low: havn't surfed, jumped, rode a bike or really, really gone running in over 4 years. stuck behind a desk. but, Whatever. Plenty of time for everything in life. Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.

RkyMtnHigh 0 #1190 May 21, 2007 High: I've never been happier in my entire life as I am now in regards to my career and relationship. Low: Realizing that this thread was started by Holly Kish who died around the time I began AFF. CanuckinUSA (Steve) perhaps you can clarify that..but I remember your video tribute to her at the end of the Bellas video..I remember it well I remember your story about being on the same plane with her and how excited she was about a milestone jump and giving you a kiss. Lows aren't over...been a helluva 3 yrs with several losses that were preventable/avoidable...skydiving related, BASE, as well as the motorcycle and car accidents and health conditions that have taken people I care about. This Sunday with the loss of Dale... This sport isn't forgiving..and a few seconds can be the difference between life and death. Damn Dale..JP doing something stupid, and now your poor judgment... I'm sure there's some great jumps going on over there on the other side... So many great freeflyers and bellyflyers are there for you Dale. I feel so grateful to have you fly camera on my 100th freefly jump and video of it ...as well as Clayton's perspective of you carving around us like a monkey! _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BoogieBob 0 #1196 November 24, 2007 High --> Driving my car with the top down on this brisk Saturday, including my usual stop at Raeford DZ which was unusually vacant today except for a few motorcyclists who had stopped by thinking Aviator's might be open (it wasn't). For some reason I found myself thinking of some skydives I've made in the past. I haven't jumped for over two years but I thought about how I always enjoyed AFF jumps with Paul Rafferty. I remembered my Cat-E skydive where he delayed his exit to watch my diving exit and front flip. After my front flip I remembered turning my head back toward the plane to look for him following me. To my surprise, he wasn't on his way down to me, he was right next to me. Doing jumps with Raff was always made me feel like a better skydiver than I was. His personality made me feel good. I also felt good because he would compensate for all of my errors and stay right with me the whole time. It made me feel like I was doing better than I was. He compensated for all of the chipping, sliding and other errors I was making. Raff may be physically removed from us now, but I'm fortunate to have interacted with him. I'm also fortunate to interact from time to time with other people who are not removed from us yet, including another instructor of mine who often takes time to speak with me even when I don't often feel that I'm worthy of anyone's attention or interest. Low --> It is Saturday. Ordinarily that is a good thing and it still is; but, in my mind I realize that tomorrow is the end of one my favorite holidays. Thanksgiving is a nice long holiday without the intensity of Christmas. But at least it is still Saturday. I'm enjoying it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
