  2. 0:6:0 Nice weekend..... 4 of the jumps were with jumpers who fall faster than I do, so I got to do some diving. :) John, Glad to hear you don't have too much longer until you're back in the air. You have such enthusiasm for the sport and working with students that you are a delight to watch teaching. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  3. Incredibly cool..... Count me in. And the first load of the day Sunday and Monday will be how much later???? lol "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  4. I thought I heard there was video evidence...
  5. K-dub - we will help you with the tent and sleeping bag as well.....if you want we will have you, luv2fly and bolas chip in for gas/food and we will do all of the main meals. I will let you know about what we will be cooking. there is some food available there but it can be somewhat limited --- usually we do a spaghetti, a whitebean chicken chili and some other yummy stuff. doc does most of the cooking so it is always very good. Lucky and Pat this includes you....just let us know so we can start the food prep in advance..... and pat we can bring your stuff, just leave with us at memorial day ----- Thanks, Cindy. Knowing I can get my stuff there helps a lot. I'd love to chip in for the food. I know how yummy it is. See you next month at Ritzville.
  6. Hey Skootz or Doc and Cindy, It looks like I'll be flying up with Brian again with just a little bit of luck. I'll know later this month for sure. If I do, I really need someone to bring my tent and sleeping bag to Prairie for me. Can someone bring them over if I leave them with you guys after the BOS boogie? Please.
  7. You weekend's already over???? Bummer. I've still got today to go. 4 skydives so far and hopefully a coule of more today. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  8. Happy Birthday, Amazon. Have a fantastic day.
  9. I can't make this one, but anyone know if there are any other CRW camps planned? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  10. LOL....I count three cases too Granny! Don't make me come back to Star and write it up on the beer board! Actually, I should be on the beer board there anyway for getting my D, but Tim, our beer cop, is slipping. lol The first jump at Temple and the first CRW jump were the same jump. Damned wind.... only got one jump there. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  11. If not mistaken, I count 3 cases of beer there! Just two... Only one jump at each dz. I'll be bringing the beer next time I'm in Texas. Hopefully better weather so I can do more jumps. First Crw jump too! Not the way the rules are written. The first jump and Temple and the first CRW jump were the same jump, and there's a limit of one case per jump. :) But it was so much fun there, that I'll consider bringing two cases anyway....

  13. 0:1:0 The winds let up enough for a while Saturday I got up for one jump. No beer this weekend, but last weekend, when there was no numbers thread....... .... first jump at Skydive San Marcos, TX .....first jump at Skydive Temple (and it was my first try at a CRW jump). That was waaaaaaaay fun. Thanks, Walt and skydivermom for jumping with me and Wendy for the loan of a canopy. I am definitely going to try that again and hopefully I'll do better next time.

  14. Got mine this weekend. Never spilled a piece of confetti. I don't know what I'm going to do with all of it, but I've saved every scrap from a couple of years worth of cards. Ideas anyone? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  15. Once is definitely not enough!! West Plains is a great place to learn and to skydive after you've got that A. There are lots of people ready and willing to help you progress in the sport. I make it there every now and then myself. Have fun!!
  16. You people are just plain naughty! Yes, they are. I think you need to come to LP and administer well ldeserved spankings. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  17. I was there yesterday and had a great time. I got there late in the day and manifest managed to pull together a load so I could jump.
  18. Congrats to you too! :) Thanks for sharing, if anyone else wants to get in on the bubbly-ness of this thread feel free. I was just very inspired yesterday by my jumps. It's like learning how to walk all over again, except now I remember how hard the learning process can be. I tried something else new today. I attempted my first CRW jump. Not exactly succesful, but sooooo much fun and I learned so much about how canopies fly. AWESOME!~!! "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  19. What a great day!! And there are so many more firsts to come I did my first jump in Texas today and I'm doing my first CRW jumps tomorrow. I better find a store here somewhere and take beer with me. lol Just a wild guess but tell Wendy I said Hi!

  23. Great. I've had a fantastic time there the last two years and I've never even tried a wingsuit. Maybe it's time? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  24. Welcome. You'll find a lot of your questions have been asked many, many times. You'll want to try using the search function at the top of the page or you may run into some grumpy responses to your questions. I did it a lot, but it is sometimes hard to figure out what you want to seach for. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
