cptnstratn 0 #1 August 30, 2001 Well, for a first post I thought I'd ask who's going to Perris this weekend? This will be the first time in six years since I've been to Perris (that's beer, right?) and it would be great to meet people from this board, if anyone is going to be there. Some more info on me: 260 jumps, mostly a long time ago. 10 or 12 since jumping again on the Fourth of July (Ceremonial for me) after this six year hiatus (WHAT WAS I THINKING!!). My new gear should be arriving at the end of next month, I can't wait. Looking forward to seeing some old friends, and sadly toasting some no longer with us.Blue Skies,Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cptnstratn 0 #3 August 30, 2001 Hi Michele,Hey, I gotta say I love your stories. I've read them, remembering the feelings I had from my first few jumps. Thanks for the reminders.Now, on to meeting times. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it on Saturday, but at this point I'm planning on being out both Sunday and Monday. If at all possible, I may come out on Saturday evening. I'll have to see how my day goes Saturday. I'm sure Ed could point you out to me also, so if I see him, I'll check.Blue Skies,Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 3 #4 August 31, 2001 I'll be there camera flying for;Perris Fall Guys on Saturday,Kate & Tony's Mini-way Camp on Sunday andback with the Fall Guys again on Monday.Probably won't have a lot of time on my hands, but I'll try to swing by Mark Brown's groups from time to time to say hi or if you see me in the loading area introduce yourselves and say hi. I'm pretty obvious, my camera helmet says, "Perris Fall Guys" on it and my rig has the name "Quade" on it.Paulfuturecam.com/skydive.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 259 #5 August 31, 2001 I'll be there on Sunday; possibly Saturday evening. Not sure exactly what time either one yet.My kid wants to go ask about a weekend job, so I will definitely show up Sunday even if I'm not jumping.pull and flare,lisa---I chose the road less traveled. Now where the hell am I? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monk 0 #6 August 31, 2001 I'll be there Saturday. Leaving directly from work tomorrow and I'm sure I'll stumble up to manifest (hangover of course) around 8 to 9am. Looking foward to meeting some of the DZ.com'ers. And I looked at CNN's weather for Perris and they're saying high of 84. WOOOOOOOOOO.CiaoMonk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viking 0 #7 August 31, 2001 I wish i could show up but thats just not possible oh and Michele do you still want those landing pics?? (do you have the $$$?? I swear you must have footprints on the back of your helmet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DZBone 0 #9 August 31, 2001 Jenn, did you get my PM?Carl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #10 August 31, 2001 Hey, JennAll the instructors know who I am, so if you can't find us in the group, have them point me out to you. Or alternatively, have manifest page me. What time are you doing level 2 and 3? Who were your JM's for level 1? Arthur, yes I want those stills, but $$ is still tight. Barely enough to jump on Saturday.Lisa and Cptn, I will most likely be staying to watch the night jumps on Saturday night. Should be on the patio of the bar, watching my friends toast the skies (I get to stay sober because I am likely driving home late Saturday night....pout...).

Albatross 0 #12 August 31, 2001 I love Jeanie but if I see her I am more likely to be trying to get the shirt off her back. That sounds bad. Looking forward to meeting all of you.

Anything I can help you with to get that A license sewn up, just let me know !I should be doing Walt's 4-way skills camp (if the Las Vegas guys show) on Saturday, but should be able to get a jump or two with you (video-wise) if you still want it, in between times.Team training with Perris Xtreme on Sunday and Monday. Should be a full weekend.See you there!Lori Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zclubber1 0 #19 August 31, 2001 Tick Tock, Tick Tock!I planned on being there early tomorrow morning (Saturday), but I'm now sitting in my office trying to decide if I should just leave everyone here to their own devices and leave now. If I do, they sure as shit won't get a damn thing done. I just wonder if they'll burn the building down while I'm gone. Decisions, decisions.Well, if don't go today, I'll be there tomorrow morning and I'm staying until at least Sunday night. This weekend's gonna be a blast!!Jump, Jump, Jump, Jump, Jump, Jump, BoozeJump, Jump, Jump, Jump, Jump ,Jump, Booze-can't you trip like I do-Clubber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albatross 0 #20 August 31, 2001 Anyone who is going to be there tonight I need drinking buddies. My councilor told me that drinking alone is a bad thing. I'll have on a white KAMAN Shirt( With a Kickboxer on the back) and my little blue addidas hat. Got to take my damn b and c licence tests. See you this weekend.

Michele 1 #22 August 31, 2001 Wingi, there's a bar there called the Bomb Shelter. You can buy beer there. However, you can bring your own, but you have to drink in the specified area.....See you tomorrow....!!!!!WWWWWWWWHHHHHHHAAAAAAHHHHHOOOOOOO!!ciels-Michele"What of the dreams that never die?

zclubber1 0 #23 August 31, 2001 Wing,You can always bring beer, but the Bombshelter gets a little pissed if you keep a cooler right on the patio. You could put the cooler around the corner of the building and pull from there, or you could just buy drinks at the bar. $3 a beer's not too bad.If I do end up there tonight, which is about 50/50 right now, I'll be more than happy to get tanked with you guys.-can't you trip like I do-Clubber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shark 0 #24 August 31, 2001 Quotei'm gona leave vegas around 5pm i should be there by 9pm. What?! You going in burner the whole way? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #25 August 31, 2001 O.K., guys.I'm gonna be "mom" for a moment...If you choose to leave work early, and get to the DZ, remember that everyone else is going to do the same thing. Therefore, a 75 minute ride will take like, uh, 4 hours.....people will be heading out after noon, so I suspect the traffic will be nutzo nightmare time through at least 8:00 tonight.And what do you get when you have nutzo nightmare traffic? COPS. Lots o' them. So drive safely, drive with one eye behind you, and take your time!!!FYI, Cal Highway Patrol tends to overload their night shift on holiday weekends, with a goal of drunk drivers. Night shift starts at 11 and goes to 7 a.m...and the overloading starts on Thursday nite and continues through Monday/Tuesday shift.O.k., I'm done being mom.....Have great trips from wherever you're coming in from, and we'll see you tomorrow!ciels-m"What of the dreams that never die?
