kingbunky 3 #1 October 13, 2004 ...but you all knew that right? many, many firsts this weekend at sdc. i arrived to cloudy skies on friday, my wife registered for her tandem and i got all my paperwork done. wandered into town and saw a movie, met my first dz.commer at the sky lounge friday night, too bad it had to be jraf. had a few beers then wandered back to my tent. saturday morning, i was greeted on my way to the hanger and directed to someone to jump with. did my 5-way with sky (way cool guy!), phil, tom and i can't remember the name of the fifth (i'm terrible with names.) we made 4 points. while packing i met sunshine and got a hug! next jump, my 6-way. i got bumped into the door and took a bit to hook up, but we almost had the third point by breakoff. while packing from that one, i met vallerina! my wife decided to take advantage of the $99 second tandem deal and went again, and had a blast! i decided to do the tourist thing and did a couple of solos, just to look around. made the sunset load with jraf for a horny gorilla, spun it like crazy, too dark to see my altimeter and i started to get dizzy so broke it off around 5k or so, saw jraf off in the distance and then landed uneventfully. went to the lounge afterwards with a cooler full of canadian beer but had a hard time giving it away, so jraf and i drank most of it. got up sunday morning, packed up, said good bye to peeps and headed into chicago to see the blue man group. bottom line, i had an awesome, awesome time and will definitely be back! thanks to everyone for the hospitality!"Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

flyangel2 2 #10 October 14, 2004 Yes, SDC does rock. I was there for Summer Fest and had a great time.

soarfree 0 #17 October 14, 2004 I agree! Though my opinion may be biased since SDC is the only place I've ever jumped I met you too, I think Tish introduced us. I was hanging out most of the day near sunshine's couch! Sorry I didn't realize you were from dz.com or I would've used my "other" name to introduce myself Glad you had a good time. I was on the "sunset" load with you on Saturday.

kingbunky 3 #18 October 14, 2004 me too! i was surprised we went up and not surprised when they threw us out early, but i was amazed that another load went up after that! oh well, jraf and i had fun with the horny gorilla in the dark anyway.
