We only drank half of it since everybody was saturated with the skunky beer and wanted to get up early to train for Nationals. Did a 3 way with Harold and his daughter Heidi. Got packed packed and did a Cat. G skydive with dude with 16 jumps. It was challenging. Then did three formation loads of around 26 jumpers or so. I can't remember because I didn't know who was on the other plane until we landed. (It's also funny to be accross the formation and see somebody that you didn't realize was on the skydive.) The evening concluded with many beers, watching the last few loads go up. The post-sundown tandems were a kick to watch as well. Wonder what the video looked like.
