jtval 0 #4 December 14, 2008 Cool It'll be cool to see new faces around. Though I'm sure that in the last 10 months there are a few new faces at my HOME dz anyway. The more the merrier. Damn. I forgot that I can't get to my External HD (it's crapped out on me.) I wont be able to do anything as far as a video this year.I'll throw a random 10 jumps wirth of videos together but thats about it. Not Necc an Entry for the film fest but something to watch for a few minutes. My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catfishhunter 1 #10 December 18, 2008 Have to miss it AGAIN :( Was in Puerto Vallarta last year and will be in Cozumel this year for work. I hate missing this boogie but then again 2 years ago we froze are asses off so maybe we won't be missng the jumps but for sure I'll be missing the mesquite crew. Maybe we can get down for the sweetheart boogie. MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY. Everything we do should have a greater purpose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertDevil 0 #12 December 23, 2008 Hi JT, We'll be there late Thursday night. There'll be a bunch of us coming--some on Thursday; some on Friday. See you guys there! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #14 January 4, 2009 QuoteI plan on driving down on friday morning. I plan on being in vegas on thursday morning. I can't wait to jump my civilian gear again. Most up to date info- This is the email that Brad sent out. Hi everybody, Just wanted to let you know that I just confirmed that we will have the second Caravan here for the boogie! If anyone wants to ride down with it, get a hold of Brian. I’ve decided that a 20.00 boogie fee gets you 20.00 jumps and I will buy food and beer on both Friday and Saturday. Also, if people want to jump on Monday and we can get enough for a load, we’ll jump. I’ve gotten some entries for the film festival already so it should be a great weekend. We are having a coach course on 1/31 and 2/1. So if there is anyone out there wanting to get their coach rating, get a hold of me soon.

millertime24 8 #17 January 6, 2009 Ill definately be there. I'm going to see if I can get away from Hill on that Friday and jump Fri, Sat, Sun. If not I'll be driving down there Friday night after work. The cool thing is the 21st is my b-day and they usually let you take a day during your birth month off. So its either going to be the 16th or the 19th. BTW, Is there anywhere cheaper than the Oasis down there? I hate being raped on weekend Nevada room prices.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #18 January 7, 2009 Virgin river is cheaper and closer.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millertime24 8 #19 January 7, 2009 BTW, Anyone living in the Ogden/SLC area who may be interested in carpooling to this boogie shoot me a pm. My car gets between 35-37mpg so your travel cost would be very small (I can get all the way to Vegas on less than 1 tank of gas).Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now if, say, you lived between Ogden and Mesquite I would be more than happy to ablidge. Due to the AAA/HC inspection next week it doesnt look like Ill get down there until Friday night sometime. If anyone is going to hang out that night please let me know. Alcohol serving establishments just love a bunch of skyivers drinking in one place.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #22 January 8, 2009 You'll see us. We'll be at the dz for a while then we usually end up at the casino's walk through the virgin river and look for familiar faces...or skydve shirts.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millertime24 8 #23 January 9, 2009 Ah. Ill be sure to wear one. I usually hang out at the bar when I'm at casino's due to the $1.50 beers. I cant see giving away good jump money though under the false hope of gaining more.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #24 January 10, 2009 Last time I gambled in mesquite the tables were $3 minimum. I think they bumped em up to $5. For a $27 bet you can cover the most bets on a craps table. IF you have a hot roller you'll make some dough , waste some time, and get a few free drinks. If not, well it cost 1.5 jump tickets to give it a shot. I usually walk away with a few more dollars than I started with and a few free drinks.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
millertime24 8 #25 January 10, 2009 ***I usually walk away with a few more dollars than I started with and a few free drinks. [url] Statistically its cheaper to buy your drinks at the bar (personal experience). I do admit that if you bet on the "no pass" bar on the craps table you DO actually have a chance at making something. Odds are always on the house though. BTW, I no longer believe in "Hot Rollers". I think the dice are weighed to give an advantage or disadvantage depending.Muff #5048 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
