One jump IS more than plenty. I learned this lesson from Brian Germain a long time ago. And if for some reason I had the inability to ever skydive again, the jumps that I have made previously were enough to last me a lifetime of memories and joy. Sometimes we have the choice to quit skydiving. Sometimes we don’t. So for to me to make just one skydive today on this notable first day of 2011 was beyond my hopes and aspirations.

Lou has me inspired … I really love her cre8tive style for making cards and such. I think that I want to find me an Airstream etched stamp! After a frolicking fun shop at Trader Joe’s with the girls, slaDE~ and I bid our ‘until we see you agains’ and made a pitstop at the…

The largest completed formation I’ve been on was a Woman’s 37 way record at Skydive Burnaby in July 2002. It was a…
I found myself fully awake as slaDE made preparations to go to the dropzone to jump this weekend. I’m used to (sort of) my husband’s early morning departures during the week where he quietly readies himself for work at 5am. And if I’m ever-so-lucky, I can remember his sweet gentle kisses in the sleepy haze…
It’s always interesting when I stumble across something in my belongings that I haven’t seen or read in years. Today, I found all my skydiving logbooks, and of course, I had to glance back through them all. To my surprise, I discovered that at the end of my 2nd full logbook, I had tabulated the…
