Snowing here too. I really don't like snow when it is this temp. Its to warm to melt and just cold enough to freeze and cause ice. Lots of vehicles in the ditches.

Sorry to hear that Paul, life can suck. As bad as this was I`m glad that you weren`t hurt any worse.
It doesn`t sound like a great evening ahead, there`s freezing rain in the forecast but still nice Nov weather for the remainder of the week with a high of plus 5 on The weekend.

morris,
i like paul, he seems like a pretty straight forward person! and i'm sorry that happened. usually when a parachute is mentioned i'm thinking skydiving or drag racing!

Things are starting to turn white here tonite, there`s not alot of snow, just enough to make the ground white. It should be fun in the morning when it`s all frozen.

I also told that to my FD while standing at the door looking out. He put his foot on my *** and pushed me out. It scared the bejesus out of me. It was the first live jump. After popping the chute, it was beautiful. Peaceful and quiet. I saw a buddy almost get a duck up his butt and was laughing so hard I almost hit the ground wrong. I could not wait for the second jump that day. I completed all four needed, but I still had three left on the trainer. Number 2 is what screwed me up.

Me either, when I really try, it seems to come back and bite me on the ***. I have had it bitten so much in the last 52 years that I do not have much left.

Well hell, send it my way. I love the ice, and snow. I know, you guys are going to send the men with white coats and a straight jacket for me. Give them some warning, I tote a 40 caliber Smith & Wesson with a 4 gram trigger pull and it will dump a clip in 3 seconds. I won't go down easy.
