You make great lists. But this time, I want to be the first car out. It's my last weekend of vacation. ----------------------------------------------------------- Heck yeah, I will make all of my crazy lists. I am going to try and talk Heidi into coming up too. But, yes, I am counting on you to leave Friday am. I am going to take the day off. I want to jump as much as possible. Yep, we need Heidi too. She and ladydiver can keep each other out of (or into) trouble. Tell Heidi she can keep me companyThis is also a weekend where our most experienced jumpers will be out doing "bigger formations"...sooo we ought to be able to turn the plane often!DPH # 2 "I am not sure what you are suppose to do with that, but I don't think it is suppose to flop around like that." ~Skootz~ I have a strong regard for the rules.......doc!
