how can you top our friday of carefree frolicking in the park? jumping out of an airplane at 13,000 feet seemed like a natural progression. after resting up from the day before, margaret, jacqui, and i got up early to catch the train to nettuno. and thank god for ashley, who tagged along to watch and ended up being our own personal pep squad to keep our excitement up and our terror down while we waited.

i couldn't quite remember the stance my parents had on the whole skydiving thing, so i figured it would be best to wait until after i did it to run it by them. oddly enough, i felt a weird calm about it the whole time...this coming from the girl who, back in the day, had to be tricked onto roller coasters and carried over the gap when getting on an elevator. my oh my, how far i've come.
pictures don't really do it justice, hopefully i can get over my technological handicap long enough to post the video. until then...
