TinMan 0 #1 May 24, 2009 Despite the soggy weather, several fun jumpers and a handful of other characters gathered for the opening of Bill Scott's new operation in Monroe on Saturday, 5/23/2009. Around 4:00 PM EDT, a big hole opened up, seven jumpers and two pilots loaded into the King Air, got up, and popped the cherry on this new DZ. It may have been just one jump, but we got the "skunk" out of the hanger. After everyone had landed safely, heavy rain ensued. The beer lamp was lit. Many photos were taken, and many stories told. Richard P. and I brought a case of Bass ale, which was eagerly consumed by those in attendance. At the new Monroe, our beer debts are paid forward forever and ever, amen. So it is written. Richard is a generous soul, and I too can be magnanimous. In future, we will donate libations for the consumption of all present (and legal age). However, be forewarned! Those calling us out for beer will have to make the purchase themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
