A good day at NWSkydivers yesterday... even though it was overcast and we only got one load to 14k..... thru a nice big legal hole to the north of the DZ.. the rest of the day.... 7500 was about it.. but hey I remember doing lots of RW from 7500 from C-170/180 back in the day..... so we did RW.

Good times and Flying Squirrel got her 100th in and a nice huge pie to commemorate the event.

Today.. even more overcast so I am calling it a weekend and staying home. and loading the truck with all the stuff I need for Lost Prairie.....just 2 sleeps away for me.

No jumpy this weekend... I did some "Relative Work" (the family kind) yesterday.... made a pie in the morning... had Shrimp and homemade ice cream with it in the evening...

today I'm gonna try and get some mowing done and I have homework to do.

edited to add... Picture of something that almost always ends up happening at family picnics... :D our family likes to pretend we're taller then we actually are... :D

I did a 15K H&P with Allen (alw) and had my first brake-fire (on a house rig >:().

No biggie, just leveled off with the offending rear riser long enough to see what I had and popped the other brake. Set brakes would've been really nice, but my bigger concern is lots of ppl AFF with that rig. Reason for the BF was nearly disintegrated velcro on one of the toggles. :S

It was just too hot to be doing any kind of movement this weekend.

Friday night, I went out to CSC for some big fun, and I forced people to watch my JFTC dvd. I think they all enjoyed it...or they all lied.

Saturday, I was very lazy. I joined in on Aarthi's 1000th (even though I'm not her friend) and had to buy TD lunch for him smoking my ass on getting to the formation. I also did a very nice four-way with 1/2 Rubicon and Andy. Then, I headed to a friend's farewell party in Chicago (he's moving to CO....20 miles from the tunnel.) Watch out CO folks....Chicago definitely won't be as much fun anymore...and I hope CO can handle him. I keep telling him about the tunnel. He said, "Doesn't it get boring? It's so small....what can you possibly do in there?" Sigh....well, at least I have a place to stay out there now, so I'll be hitting that tunnel before too long! :)
Today, I hung out with my nephews all day, and I went swimming with them. Now, it's time to recover from everything this weekend.

I'm seriously considering buying him the first flight gift certificate as his housewarming gift. I figure he fed me, gave me alcohol, let me stay at his place for the past few years....it's the least I can do. (Plus, I want to make sure he has no excuses to NOT go....)
