"Boogie in Belize VI"

Recommended Posts

Four rigs! must be nice, I've just got my one that I'll be bringing.



Well, two are mine, and two are the S.O.'s. Regular & water rigs for each of us. B| (And my water rig is cobbled together by a bunch of borrowed gear, so I'm not that spoiled).

Cool. We're bringing scuba gear in place of my second rig, my wife isn't current so we'll do some diving in place of a water jump.

It cannot possibly arrive soon enough. It's just that I'm too busy being crazed at work and thinking "I can't wait to go to Belize" to post about it all the time!

I too can't wait. We've had at least some snow on the ground for I think the past 2-3 weeks. I live in North Carolina. This is not normal for us. :S

Exactly 1 week for me. B|

Just got back from 4 days of shreding snow at Tahoe, wine tasting yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and Belize next Friday.

Retirement is highly recommended.

Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.

If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

I was in Belize this past Thursday - a cold front had moved through the area so clouds and wind. The ceiling looked high enough in the morning but the winds were kicking. It lessened up a bit in the PM.

Note: I wasn't at the boogie nor did I jump any days. I just happened to be in Belize, swimming in some choppy assed water.

Yeah, we had a couple weather days, but when weather days mean bright blue skies, warm temps, and breeze, so that I can still lay out by the pool or hop on a dive boat 10 yards away from the hotel ... I won't complain (that breeze translated into high winds over the buildings by the landing area, which made for some pretty turbulent air in the landing area). Ceilings were low on a couple other days, but overall we had great weather, great skydives, and great people. Thanks to Rich Grimm for organizing a fantastic event! What a special place Belize is.:)

Awesome jumps, scuba diving, snorkeling, b(B)oobies :P, parties, new friends, old friends, touristing, zip lining, cave tubing, etc.

Going from 14,000 feet to -140 feet in less than an hour is beyond cool. The Blue Hole jump alone is worth the trip. :)
I landed in Miami yesterday exhausted, sore, and hungover with a huge smile on my face. Thanks Rich and Belize. B|
