After a a gloomy day spent last weekend at Skydive Orange, half our crew that chose to not jump at 7,000 feet went back this weekend to hop out of the Super Otter from 13,500. I’m happy to announce I have crossed yet another item off my life list. I’m now at 28% complete with a couple of items that will surely be crossed…
