Default DeLand - Skydiving - 07Sep2009

NOTE: Date now officially Sunday, 06Sep2009

The Bucket List might suffer a hit on this date. Buddy in Gainesville and I are planning to jump out of a perfectly good plane on his birthday.

Thinking we might get a bunch of FLA Crew and others gathered to watch the splattering. Even if I can't swing the cost of jumping, Mark's planning on it anyway. Maybe a party the nite before, too?! Hell, maybe one afterwards ... depending.

02Aug2009: NEW INFO. Would be really cool if we could ride up Sat the 5th, party somewhere that night, and do the jumps (and/or spectator thing) the next morning. Any suggestions on cheap hotels near DeLand, and a good place to party? Also, unconfirmed details as of yet, but think the jump is $180, cash only <-- now that there's funny!, and no reservations until 3-days before. The more jumpers, the merrier, so just say the word!

I always wanted to try jumping, just never could get over the thought of having some guy strapped to my a$$.

Yeah... Was thinking about having Dale and Kay check it out for me, and see if by chance, they have a busty young mamma tandem jumper I could reserve.

Jumpin' out of an airplane takes more guts than I have. Good luck to you and your buddy.

It is right down the road from me. About 3 miles. You won't have to bring a cooler of suds as they have a nice restaurant and bar right there. We could have a little jumping party.

If I am home I will be there, plan to do same this year myself, the guy strapped to my *** thing is still a little bothersome but I will get over it, want to get qualified to jump by myself. Had 8 years of requestds for jumpschool in the Army but never could get slotted, too many brainless people in the Army ahead of me.
