PJ, you have managed to pull my sorry ass out of the hole I've been hiding in forever.. Let's see. Happy Sara moments. First, there is the awesome young girl who helped me relax during those scary first few times out at the dz. Her kind words, funny smile. Similarity to me in age and attitude. It was all a comfort. How about the time that she was painting the Xkeys staff mural on the wall out on the back deck. I was all sprained up from a bad decision (next time PJ, I WILL just stay down) and she let my very non-artistic self help with the painting. I messed Pancakes portfolio up so many times and she just kept trying and trying to help me fix it. I remember when we were rushing to finish it up. We were both leaving NJ for the winter and we tried so hard. I have this one picture where we are laughing so hard painting the mural, stopping every fifteen minutes to pride ourselves on the “great” progress we made. I’ve wondered over the years if they were going to paint over it, now I hope it stays up forever in its faded glory. On the bottom right hand corner are our signatures. The last things we painted on that wall, so proud Danny, Jason and some other guys use to skateboard out front of the hangar.. Sara would walk up, jump on a skateboard, dash around, crash out a few times, fall down, get back up and continue. These were always entertaining moments, watching the guys and Sara have crazy wipeouts and walk away unharmed. I remember when Sara went to Israel shortly after September 11th.. I was so proud of her to go to an area so wrapped up in America's strong opinions. All the confusion, the doubts, the misunderstandings about the attacks of September 11th, the prejudices. And here Sara is, going to this area. Every time I heard her speaking Hebrew I was amazed. It’s a hard language, with strong pronunciations. When all the Israel jumpers were here in 2001 I tried to learn Hebrew and could appreciate the difficulty in acquiring the language. Sara didn't drink and would buy ice cream for her milestones and violations that would regularly result in beer. I remember one hot summer day, I don't remember if it was a beer line violation or a celebration, i just remember that Sara busted out this ginormous tub of ice cream, with every topping imaginable. At first we resisted “just buy the beer”. But when the ice cream arrived we caved in like five year olds and dug in. Thanks for the ice cream treats Sara. That reminds me of when people would jump with less than publicly appropriate clothing on. Sara would avoid seeing the person topless and/ or naked. Both of those things, the ice cream and the avoiding, that's just a few of the ways that Sara worked strong religious convictions into this very liberated, loose group. She loved her faith enough, and loved jumping enough, to make the two work together to fit her world and her morals. The day before Sara and Ron’s accident I was sitting on the deck out back. Sara was in a hectic moment, running from the hangar to the video room. I remember looking at her and seeing how strong she was becoming, her arms were so toned, she stood so proud and bright and shining. And as I looked at her I thought what a beautiful woman she had become, and how much she, and the rest of us, have grown up over the years. For a moment I saw the manifest Sara in my mind and just smiled at who she had become. Plus, I was pretty amused because every time she turned around it seemed that she was coming thisclose to running into Yonathan, who was equally as hectic. I went out for the ambulance call for Sara and Ron’s accident…. In many ways I wish I hadn’t been out there, but for my last memory of Sara, I’m grateful that I could have been there and had a very brief, very special moment before it all became too much. When I think of Sara I think of the many times when, over the years, she has impressed me with here dedication and caused me to feel proud of her. There are many memories. I love each one. Thanks for them Sara.

I will be leaving the South Jersey/ Philadelphia area on Saturday night heading to Delmarva for the night and sunday, possibly sunday night. I hate driving by myself, was looking to see if anybody wanted to take a last minute trip. Email me if you wanna go visit Delmarva. [email protected]

hey. i can attest to the fact that clay was not with a sheep tonight, he did not touch any sheep tonight and no, he did not go home with any sheep tonight.... at least when i dropped him off he didnt have one.. clay is in New Jeresey! Having dinner with the sheep hugger was news enough for me to come out of the hole i've been living in and post. had a great time with him. awesome guy. glad i got to meet him... and surprisenly, he was pretty damn normal. actually, completely normal. i was running late to dinner when i thought " i should stop at hallmark and buy him a little stuffed sheep animal"... but then he called from the bar and i figured i didnt have time. didn't want to make him wait any longer. Glad i finally got to meet you clay

went to orange for the weekend. i cant explain it, but it felt like i was at home before i even got there.. the place is awesome. its all the proof that i need to believe that to be great you dont have to be the biggest.. the laid back club atmosphere mixed very well with the back to back loads, load orangizing, dirt diving, wingsuit instruction and student flow.. combine that with sunset kick the can load, 2 night jump loads and a relaxed easy paced start to sunday morning.. i was totally jazzed the entire time. thanks to everybody at orange for making my stay really sweet. you naked people kick ass. and thanks for all the work if you get the chance go to orange. dont miss out, because its too good of a time to bypass.

yuri, yeah. i heard a really hot chick from xkeys gave you her protrack to use this weekend thanks for all the work. i'd say you guys fed a lot of new addictions this weekend.. those who didnt make it missed a kick ass boogie. show up next time and be ready for the 9am birdman class with jari and yuri

congrats kev! i did some rolling around with the birdman suits.. unfortuantly it was when i was closing Yuri's rig

In fact, he was here today. my email is [email protected] Orange folks have a place to stay here at my house. I think were going to have a house full tonight, but theres always floor space. Since 3am this morning friends of ross' starting showing up. I think theres 10 or so people from orange here. We were all able to get at least a few minutes in the ICU room with him. Come up, visit him. he needs our support. To be honest, It's easier dealing with all of this with you guys here.

check out some Rigging Innovations risers, such as the ones that come with the Voodoo or even the Vector 3 risers, I've seen keepers to stow the excess line on the back of the riser. I know the voodoo has it standard, the vector 3 might be a mod but im not sure. ask your rigger to sow the little elastic on. it should be a quick, simple mod. http://kel197.tripod.com/skydivefriendsTRIPOD/

dave, thanks and its okay to think your packers are hot chicks. oh yeah... whats going on with that exersize program?
