monkycndo 0 #51 August 28, 2006 QuoteQuote but exempt because happened at a boogie Who the hell told ya that Boogies are excempt from beer, it's even more important to pay up at boogies Free beer provided in boogie fees, so everyone was happy. I normally tend to be way ahead on providing beer. I don't even drink the stuff. So just because you caused a stink, when I visit your DZ, I'm bringing Zima in your honor. 50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It rocked I feel sorry for all of those who could not or did not attend, you missed out. 15 - all the jumps varied in what went on, but damn were they fun (most memorable was Krisane's 1st hang in a hybrid) 1st Jumping my new flat top and taking stills (Even at a boogie I bought beer) 2nd For my first cut-away, I bought yeager shots at the 205 club (see you should not have missed the after boogie party) Found my canopy the next day after the Molalla TM's and fun jumpers were circling around and flaring up high so we could locate it. Special thanks to my surrogate Dad "Perry" for hacking through the hundreds of yards of enormus blackberry bushes to get to and retrieve my canopy. I was amazed there was zero damage to the canopy, but we were not able to locate the reserve PC and Freebag.

That's funny, because I think the same thing of all that you do. I'd love to go along on your Colorado hikes, and your boogie circuit. The hot summer is just about over here in Texas, so camping season is coming once again. In October I've got another one-week wilderness canoe trip on the Rio Grande! And some more Indian cave hikes coming up too. What are you doing in college?
