I went skydiving. I decided to go about 2 months ago, and have talked myself out of it several times since. I'm glad I kept talking myself back into it. It was not at all like I expected. It was cold, uncomfortable, and I had a blast!
Forget everything you think it would be like (except the windy bit). There's no "I'm afraid of heights; it's too high!" there's no "I'm falling!" No ground rush. The biggest issue I faced was remembering that I could, in fact, breathe despite the bitter cold, 122 mph wind in my face. I could have jumped out the plane myself without being pushed. Heath agreed, and he's afraid of heights. I recommend this past-time. I especially recommend Midwest Sky Dive.

You guys were great!
Here I am with my instructor/parachuteman while he makes final adjustments on his equipment; and being led by him to the plane.


Here is the first plane I've ever been on taking off (with Heath and I in it).

and I didn't even get to land in it.
Here are people falling.

Here is Heath falling.

Really... that's Heath!!!
Here is me falling!

Really... that's Me!!!

So... seriously, when can I go again?
