  1. Makes me appreciate the heat and humidity here in the South listening to you all. I've been desperate enough to do a cloud base last Jan. Anything to get off the ground..........
  2. let's just say some people are better at hRW than others Joey sausage..............
  3. Make sure the DZ you choose is operating 7 days a week. Lots of them say they are open but there in nobody there and you can't get then to take an otter with 3 or 4 people on it. Call and check with them ahead of time. I managed to do all my AFF in a month on weekends. (Tough task since I loved level 4....4 times!) I also agree with the money. Plan on dropping some serious cash...well worth the investment and it is legal. Not that that would bother any of us........
  4. The tunnel was a blast (I actually settled down by the second day..I really hate heights). Did you meet Ed? I took him out at the door...big guy couldn't handle little ol' me! Did you do the SkyCoaster? If not you should have.
  5. 8:7:2 beer was for first night jump and first landing in Farmer McNasty's field....that was cool actually landed in hay
  6. I've gotten down to 3 and then did the third eye on Doc. Hurt like hell. I saw stars for 10 minutes. Of course I wnet back for more. Not brave enough to do a 2 way.......

    Night JUMPED

    Yes it is a beerable offense. I expect beer. Smirnoff Ice will do fine...... Glad you had fun Dutch!!
  8. Though that was what exits were supposed to look like???????? Actually we pulled some good ones off, but of course we had some ZOO exits too. They are all good unless you are Nemesis who turns 5 points on the hill............
  9. Hey sweetie. Sorry to hear you had a rough weekend. I think you are being WAY TOOOOOOO HARD on yourself. I wish you could see my student logbook. Funnas can be as several of the JM's not flat spin, flat spin. My arms also have a mind of their own. They eventually figure out where to go and be. The relaxation didve may be a good idea as you seem to be putting too much stress on yourself to be perfect. I did one after level 4 x 4 just to get a grip. Hey if I can make it you surely can. I even did night jumps this weekend...talk about scared. But I did it and now know I can. You know you can do this so stop doubting yourself. (you handled the situation didn't you??...yes) We all believe in you. Believe in yourself and don't let outside stuff get in the way of that. Albi....you have great timing. A chick can always use a HUG.
  10. Obviously we were bored this weekend. I jumped 7 times Sat. OK, I'll admit it I also watched Fandango twice, but that was Friday. Funny....thanks Mr. Hix x x
  11. There is so much to try and so much to learn but I think I just want to keep it fun. If it ever becomes work I think the fun would go away. One thing I thought was fun was the hybrid dive so we are planning one for my 200th!
  12. Sis...I wondered where you were. I jumped my tail off Sat from noon to midnight. 7 jumps. One was a terrible spot and the entire load what in farmer McNasty's field. He was ill. Let me know when you are going to be here and Ill try and make it a point to come to Thomaston if you are going to be there. Rome is like 4+ hours for me so I don't think I'll make it there. We could most likely fill the otter if I get some specific days/times and get on the phone. LET ME KNOW.
  13. No offense all, but I like the first dream much better... Thanks for sharing PT...hope you are better soon. Lisa

    Night JUMPED

    Well...I did it. Got both my night jump requirements for my D on Sat. The scenery was beautiful....ATLANTA from afar was neat. Stood the first one up right where I wanted, but thought I would check out the turf on the second. No harm...no foul. Guess I owe my case of beer.
  16. Nothing else better to do either huh?
  17. Several of us were talking the other day and think we still have tatoos from the last time somewhere on our bodies!! What a blast... Tell Burrito I need a new necklace.

    Weekday musings

    Hey...I worked hard for that name....ask anyone who has ever ridden to altitude with me!!!!
  19. I'm with Grogs. Be honest about your experience and concerns with the organizers, then follow their advice. If you get into it and still feel uncomfortable let them know and pull yourslef off. That is why they have alturnates. By being honest with them up-front they will know you are interested and want to be a part of the team even if you wait it out a year. Best of luck and let us know what you do.
  20. Best of luck to you both. Relax and enjoy the wonders. Blue Skies and Happy Landings, Lisa
  21. I'm with Michele that the video is a great learning tool for us visual learners. I didn't have it on any of my AFF jumps but did on my first solo....it was the funniest thing I have ever seen. I could see what th JM's were talking about finally. I looked and thought to myself...you really need to work on that form girl...and yes, Russ, I know...LEGS OUT! I could see what I was doing. Thankfully they don't insist on video for your program jumps, but if you can afford it the learning acquired is second to none.
  22. Just be careful landing. We want you to be able to walk. Have a good one.........
  23. Who needs clothes...the rig is the most important thing.
  24. So close, and yet so far..........
