hooked 0 #120 January 27, 2002 Don't I know it "you're never too old to start having fun"! I wish I had tried this many years ago! Thanks for the encouragement. I was hoping there would be some "older" skydivers out there, ones who started jumping in their 40's and 50's! Makes me a little more confident.
