tkhayes 348 #1 January 4, 2004 Great week and thanks to everyone that showe dup. as of yesterday, we were over 7000 jumps for the boogie, more than 500 people came through the dropzone. The weather has been nothing short of near perfect. But mostly thanks to our customers for coming out and hope everyone had a great time, I am tired, taking a couple days off....

marcandalysse 0 #2 January 4, 2004 TK, We had a great time at zhills, sure was nice to get those days off during the week to hang out with ya! And definitely one of my favorite NewYearsEve Parties of all time! Kudos should also go to Janine, who kept us well fed day and nite, those dinners were great! I have got to get a trailer at the dz, too many drives back and forth over 2 weeks! Don't forget to post the Zhills jumps info: Over 65000 jumps in 2003.....As you say "Doing our part for the Ozone layer".... I will try to double my jump numbers in 2004...like hearing that, huh? marc "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dove 0 #4 January 5, 2004 Jumped my ASS off! Had a fan-freakin'-tastic time. Lotsa big-way headdown jumps and lotsa Atmonauti jumps. What a blast! But I'm not done yet. See ya tomorrow! Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #5 January 5, 2004 TK, I had so much fun down there, and thanks so much for helping those hop-n-pops happen for me! I was soooo sad to leave! Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dove 0 #6 January 5, 2004 Kelly - Glad I got to meet you if only for a few minutes before you hop-n-popped out! If it wasn't for your avatar I would never have recognized you! And even still I wasn't totally sure. So many dz.commers were there that I never met cause I don't know what they look like and I'm always on the freefly porch packing or running to the plane. You looked very happy though. Hope you achieved all the goals you set out to! Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmpnkramer 0 #10 January 5, 2004 A good time was definitely had by all. That is for sure. I am not positive but no major injuries that I am aware of. Almost 50 total night jumps were made on the 31ST some of those into the 1ST. A total of three Otter Loads. C'mon now if you post on here lets' keep this thread alive. Eloy may have been fun but it was cold. At least Florida was Sunny with Light and variable winds, temperatures in the 80's and numerous fun people as well. The Eloy people are just plain jealous is all. All the thanks go out to TK and Staff, Paul M. at the Bar, and Janine at the snack bar (food throughout the day and awesome dinners at night!)

kelel01 1 #12 January 5, 2004 Sweet!! Yeah, I procrastinated too long Sunday morning, and the next thing I knew, you were organizing an 8-way. Shit! Missed my chance! Hopefully next time I come down there, I'll have my A, my own gear, and a lot more money. Then I won't have to sit around debating whether or not to jump in the absolutely gorgeous weather! It was great to meet you! And you'll definitely be seeing me more! Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #13 January 5, 2004 Oh, yeah, and thanks to all of the people who taught me about spotting (Ron, Eric, Pip(?), Igor, etc.) . . . I ALMOST feel like I can do it now, at least at my home DZ where I'm familiar with the surrounding areas. I think I learned so much while I was there, and I am eternally grateful. Plus, there's nothing like getting some sun in January! Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybrat68 0 #18 January 6, 2004 It had to have been early. When I went to Gaylen with the portable breathalizer, he broke the machine. Hell, there were people blowing .3somethings and it was before midnight! It was a blast! How I was in any shape to jump the next day is beyond my scope of comprehension.

skybrat68 0 #20 January 7, 2004 Boy, you must have been wasted! You were my partner in crime! You made sure that anyone and everyone that took it answered correctly when you asked them if they were clean of visible coldsores or syphilis of the ass. Oh wait, you WERE wasted! You were barely in any shape to jump New Year's Day. If I remember correctly, you made one jump and split the scene. We had a blast huh?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigWaveDave 0 #21 January 7, 2004 I was still blowing a .05 when I woke up that morning, so yeah, I'd say I was pretty wasted... But damn that was a good night.
