A couple of weeks ago I went skydiving for the first time with Tnarg.  I know I know- how could I wait weeks to blog about something so amazing? I guess I’ve been a tad distracted.  We went to Skydive Arizona located in Eloy (about halfway between Phoenix and Tucson).

We each did a tandem jump with an instructor.  He was with Jay, and I was with Dusty.  Tnarg went out of the plan doing a backflip- and I went face first.  I have to tell you- I am glad I did- there is nothing like instantly seeing the ground coming closer and closer toward you at the rate of hundreds of feet per second.   You jump out of the plane at about 13,000 feet and a mere 50-60 seconds later you have dropped to about 5,000 in free fall.

Once the parachute is pulled- everything becomes instantly quiet.  I felt like a baby being born into the world eyes wide- and looking in absolutely every direction around me.  At one point there was actually a plane I could see flying underneath us- it was a total trip.

It was probably one of the most amazing experiences of my whole life.  Enough said.
