My wife is being good to me lately.

2 Awsome Birdman Jumps. Only 3 loads went up today, the first clear day in weeks. 1 hop-n-pop and 2 to altitude. I wasn't going to remove my rig from my suit for 3,500 feet, so I got on the last 2 only.

0 beer I owe. (1) Patman says I owe for jumping my Birdman at Omro. I disagree, since there has been BirdMan jumps there, and it wasn't my first. I give in though, and I'll just bring a case with next time I'm there to appease the beer gods.

All in all, a good weekend. Who's next?

Somewhere around 10 pounds gained while visiting relatives in Connecticut for the holiday weekend.

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

2 .commers to remain unnamed observed partaking in synchronized projectile puking at the fire (ZHills).

1 jump saturday. Had to wait till it warmed up, it was a chillly day in FL! warmed up today nicely, but sunday is hangover day, especially after a night of Aviatrrrr's rum punch margaritas or whatever they were. Jump was a HILARIOUS 6 way with eener, galen, the111, aviatrr, and dagny. Dagny will grow up to be a great flying Hellfish one day!

ON a side note, I know nothing about the black smoke and missing fuels that may have been related to the bonfire.

Did my 200th jump. Also did my first reverse cross country: a clear and pull from 10,500 right over the DZ, then we flew downwind until we ran out of altitude. We landed 13 miles from the DZ

Edit: I just ran the numbers myself. We went from about 42.72697W 88.14993S to 42.79964W 88.37119E. That's about 12.3 miles. Still not bad. The tailwind gave us an effective glide ratio of about 6.36:1.

Edit again: Now with a map. Because making maps is more fun than doing homework.

I've been trying to get my 200th for about 3 weeks.
I just can't seem to get enough jumps in per weekend.

5 jumps, and one case for my new jump suit.
I got up 175 jumps in my 1st 12 months and it's taken me 3 months to get another 20.
Geez i hate windy days

A pleasant weekend in Sebastian, some very fun jumps with some dotcommers and a great one with Dave Brown.

Happy Birthday to eeneR, btw.

Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Had a thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat, went and saw Bad Santa- (I will never look at a shopping mall santa the same -) The movie was an absolute RIOT!

Three jumps on Saturday after three weeks with nothing - Felt SO GOOD to get back in the air!!

LadySkyDiver dropped in with her man Keith - Had a nice visit and did a little catching up- Good to see you, Girl! And a pleasure meeting you Keith!

Went to dinner with fellow RW team mate Ken on Saturday night, took my daughter Sarah out to buy a dress for the club Christmas party on Sunday.

We've begun to make plans for our tunnel visit to Orlando in March. So far we have Sarah, Ken and myself going for a total of two hours between the three of us.

Made some more piles of sawdust in the garage-

Drank beer!!!!

Had good days on Friday and Saturday. Lots of coach jumps, some fun rw stuff etc.

Beer: First birdman jump, first jump on a 105, and first paid tandem.

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Engines broke on our Cessna

1st weekend without a jump this year

To make matters worse I now have a sore back
Could this be due to not jumping?
