I really hadn't been looking very far beyond learning to jump, pull, & land, other than to pretty much think at my age my options when it came to the various disciplines were pretty much limited. Maybe I better give that idea some more thought. Thanks, Jim Hickey and you too, the Don and Lisa, for sharing the info about him. Now, if anyone can do anything about the weather here in Idaho so that I can practice that jump, pull, land thing again one of these days......."safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!
