MWGemini 0 #1 October 24, 2004 Today I made my 27th jump, and met the last of the A license requirements. I never thought it would take me this long (started over a year and a half ago, my fiancee and I went for our first tandem on valentine's day, but after doing 7 jumps, I had to stop for a year because of $), but I'm glad that I was able to pick it back up and stick with it. I plan on being in the sport for a long time, and every jump I learn and experience something new. The people that I've met, and who have helped me along the way are all great, and I look forward to meeting and jumping with some of you one day....
