Michigan - Wednesday and thursday

[cbain 0]

Hey, anybody up here in Michigan.
I'm in Midland for the week and I went out to central Michigan skydivers yesterday and did a jump.

I'm around tomorrow and Thursday too. So if anybody can come out and make a jump let me know!

I think I'll be at central michigan skydivers tomorrow and maybe out at Wild Wind in Saginaw on Thursday, I hear they have experienced jumpers there on Thursdays.

Damn!

I was there just this last weekend getting in a bunch of jumps. Unfortunatly due to a PC in tow (beerable), I am now waiting for a new reserve handle to arrive

Planning on staying till the weekend, or will you be out of there before then? I should be down this weekend.

So which IS the best DZ in Michigan ? I'll be coming up for the Penn State game Oct. 12, and plan on jumping in Ohio or Indiana on the way up, and in Michigan that Sunday.

Might even be able to drag my brother out for a tandem...

heh, I won't even touch the best DZ question with a 10 ft pole

I will say that CMS has the friendliest jumpers at any DZ I have been at, and the atmosphere is really nice. Maybe the long climbs to altitude encourage the chamradie

If you drop by, make sure to look me up, my name is Jesse. 6' big white guy with a pony tail. Just ask around - I've funneled enough jumps most people know me by now

Don.. your coming up through Ohio huh? What route are you taking? I'll get you to the best DZ on either route.

Yesterday is history
And tomorrow is a mystery

Damn, I'm jealous you're going to the Michigan/Penn State game (not jealous you're jumping since I'll be doing the same this weekend at Skydive New England). Go Blue!

Damn right ! It rocks having a brother who's a season-ticket holder. Got my pick of several games, and my boys are on the road at Ohio State this year, and I've seen them play everyone in the Big Ten except PSU, so.....
Phree....cool, dude ! I'll be heading up I-77 to the Ohio Turnpike, then cutting across state. I was thinking AerOhio in Rittman or Canton in Alliance. Another option is Xenia, then heading up I-75.
Whatcha think ? There's also a DZ in Lancaster, but given the Michigan decals on my car, that might be too close to Columbus !

Can't afford season tickets anymore since I started skydiving ..I was the only person at my DZ Labor Day weekend trying to watch the Michigan game and jump....thank god they grounded AFF students (me)because of the wind.

Hell no...drive through Columbus with those decals

Don... I'll talk to you on IM about them...
