Decompressing: After Alumapalooza

Byskydiva June 2, 2013July 5, 2013

The final day of Alumapalooza: time for everyone to pack up camp and move on down the road. Some people would decompress in the Airstream Terraport (usual that would be us), but we are on a mission to return to Canada asap for the skydiving working season. It’s time to supplement the funds and take our newly minted AFF ratings for a spin :).

So off to Lou & Larry’s for the evening before winding our way back home. Decompression with some Rockband guitar and relaxation, enjoying the sun and friendship of our Ohio friends. Life sure is grand!

With the Boogie in Belize officially starting today, we had to have a very special reason for not actually attending the opening ceremonies. The venue? A Texan wedding: our friends Ashley Leyva and Cody Holsey would be tying the knot. San Antonio was the city, and that meant catching a ride with our friend Stacey…

A Dirty Job

Byskydiva May 24, 2011June 13, 2011

It’s really been an interesting few weeks watching the interaction between Harley the farm tabby cat and the two new girl puppies, Barbie and Bailey (a Jack Russell and Australian Blue Heeler mix). The dogs stay in a caged pen at night but have the run of the farm during the day. Harley the feline…

Lessons in Life and Canopy Flight

Byskydiva April 10, 2010April 16, 2010

What started out as beautiful weather on waking resulted in an intermittent flux of rain throughout the day. But once the winds moved in, many of the clouds moved out, much to the appreciation of the anxious grounded skydivers and awaiting tandem customers. Didn’t really matter too much to me … slaDE and I had…

Pedicures of the Equine Kind

Byskydiva June 24, 2010June 21, 2011

Although I absolutely adore going home, returning to the farm usually means a shift in my daily routine and sleeping schedule. Ever since returning to a ‘life of luxury’ (aka no official job title ~ outside of my freelance meanderings ~ with set start times), we’ve seldom had to use an alarm clock and we’ve pretty much been able…

Mother’s Day with the Maly’s and Mom

Byskydiva May 8, 2011May 11, 2011

A glorious Mother’s Day tradition is upheld in the Maly family. For many generations now, the boys get up early Sunday morning and head to the Farmer’s Market to buy their beloved Mothers and Spouses a planter of flowers. Although technically I’m a female, I was invited to join the guys on their venture, photographing…
