Michael Speaking from experience, since I was on a four way line off the base, THE BASE IS FALLING FAST. That will be the same base used for the World Pop's out at Perris in October. So, heads up to the folks that weren't on the Texas Pop's, be ready. Thanks also to Chuck and Steve for a job well done as plane captains, and to Carey for getting us all together. See ya all at Perris.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jumperpaula 0 #11 May 9, 2003 Congrats to all. It's very very cool that the record was set. Im very proud to have the record for Texas at my home DZ. Excellent job everyone. ~Sidenote : Im very flattered of the phones calls I got at home to invite me to particpate. **NEWSFLASH** Im only 34!!!!! Im sure it was I ACT 40 something, and not I LOOK 40 something. That would be the right answer, anyway. Way to Go on the Record!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,121 #17 May 9, 2003 Nah, glad you joined our depraved little club. The best part about the base (for me) was Mike's red helmet. There's nothing like a different helmet for old folks like me to know where to dock I won't have the beer out there tommorrow (paperwork), but expect some next weekend if the weather is good.

Hey Wendy, wouldn't some of the guys look good in pinkI'm so jealous that you all will be there for the Memorial Day Boogie.

White/White/White/Gray/Gray/Gray didn't offer enough contrast for you? BTW, I've placed the order for the new "da Base" t-shirts. I added a bit to it to commemorate the event. Check it out at: http://customink.com/cink/r.jsp?E=jrprice%40compassnet.com&F=popscolor7 Two weeks production and delivery, then I'll get 'em out via snail mail to you POPs who signed up at the DZ.
