Wow!!! You must have a pretty good sized yard. Sounds like fun, unfortunately, I have not skydived in abou 11 years, so would have to renew my rating... oh... yeah, and I'm no where near Macon, GA Sounds like a blast though. Are you going to have geocaches as your targets? And use the GPS to guide yourself to a particular cache? Quote Link to comment

+bilbad Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Geocaching is so universal that it can be mixed with almost any other hobby/activity. Could you fly your 'copter over central pa and pick me up? ummm and could it land in your yard? I don't wanna jump! I just want them caches Quote Link to comment

He's from Alabama so he has no room to talk Sounds like you have a fun day planned. Should be a good time 50-75 of my closest friends,music,BBQ,bonfire.This was not really an invite to skydive although you can.I will have a friend here with a tandem rig.It is more an attempt to meet some of the local cachers. Anytime you mention skydiving on a non skydiving site it usually turns to accidents and deaths fairly quickly. Quote Link to comment

I didn't mean anything like that, I was just trying to share an amazing story. Heck driving a car is more dangerous then skydiving Quote Link to comment
BRTango Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Skydiving is awesome... I wish I would have stuck with it. Now I have too much going on to take the time. But... oh... the joy of the freefall, and the peacefullness of riding under canopy is just incredible. That, and unlike my Army jumps, the landings are sweet And of course you can't forget the views from 12000 ft up I'd love to skydive into some of the more remote areas for the really deep geocaches... then spend the next day or so hiking back out That'd be fun!!
