1 jump with a 70-yr old (guy named Mac...will be 70 in Feb). 1 speedstar with 2 vidiots trying to sit-foot dock.

2 CReW jumps with Walt and 2 CReW attempts with my former instructor (our canopies weren't compatible
).
First jump of the day, Walt and I do rotations and then fly a two-stack into the DZ where I learned to Skydive. My start in this sport wasn't exactly awesome, so it was with great pride that my former instructor witnessed me participating in the first CReW jump at his DZ. Yes I know BEER...or root beer in my case.
Anyway, on the other CReW jump we only got about 5K due to clouds, so Walt and I get together around 3k and both realize we cannot see the dz, but we didn't care. So he lands us in a big open field, and then a very nice farmer gives us a ride back. When we arrived at the dz, a local volunteer firefighter shows up to check on us. He saw two parachutes flying close together and thought one of us was passed out and the other was trying to help.
Jumping in a small, Texas town has its advantages.

Yes - I finally owe beer.
I recieved my VSCR number in the mail - it was accomplished in 2003 at the 4th of July in Waller Texas.
VSCR#108
The paperwork of whatever was lost or whatever - but Bill Newell hooked me up and I'll post pics later of everything I got.
Thanks Bill
Oh and as far as the Small town thing - the cessna at SD Temple used to crash 3 to 4 times a weekend . . . and the police actually asked us if we could land somewhere else to avoid all the calls.
I looked at him and said - sure - the people at the rest stop need a demo.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Did my PFF levels 2 and 3. Had to land w/o radio way off the DZ on my 4th jump, oy! (Worked out well, though... talk about stress...) Level 3 was absolutely brilliant! Mucked up the exit but finally got some solo freefall!
