How to say "YES" more to experience more in May 2009
It took me
2 days
It made me
WOW

How I did it: The floor proctor was the skydiving instructor. I stopped him in the halwway and said I wanted to join the club. for two days we practice jumping off of the hood of a car onto the grass and then went to the airstip and sat in the front floorboard ( no seat) of a Cessna  182 with the door removed (because it had no JUMP door" we practiced getting out and hanging on the strut. "Go" was the que to drop away and arch .... count to three … Read how I did it…

Visitors for KIWI land 2 months ago

Met Malcomb (72) and David (75) from New Zealand thru “Freedom Force” what a great chance to learn about the country. 20 visitors came over to the states and spent a week with their hosts here in Memphis. We took them to all the touristy places here. Civil Rights Museum, Memphis Zoo, Beale street. St. Jude, Rhodes College, BBQ dinners, Mississippi River and Graceland.

take many many roadtrips
Key West is everything you can imagine ... 9 months ago

Key West is everything you can imagine … I stopped into Jimmy Buffet’s place and drank a toast to an old friend Heather. And found a great book he wrote “How to quit you job and move to Key west” this place has great sunsets and is a few blocks from the southern most point in the USA. The shops have loads of fun stuff. The book explains the ins and outs of life there .. food, flats, police, rules, old timers and locals. It’s as great as the state of California but smaller. I continue to read and plan my escape from Memphis which was voted last year by the FBI as highest crime city in the US. It’s time to say “Been fun … Gotta go”

See the US and Canada
... Chicago ... who would vacation there .... 13 months ago

WOW !!!! what an incredible city. I stayed outside the city and picked up a rail pass for little of nothing. The hour train ride was an adventure in itself. All those small towns with their main street right next to the rails. Seeing the small shops and quaint little garden backyards. In the city you come up to not just big buildings but F*ing HUGE skyscrapers. The kind of buildings that makes you lean back to see them. they really do scrape the sky. How about that Sears Tower 110 stories tall. WOW….. Take a water taxi from Union Station to Navy Pier and ride that giant Ferris wheel.
There are so many things to do … my friends said oh you have to see yada yada yada. This is really a great walking city. 9 hours walking on just the first day. You have to see the aquarium, planetarium, Millennium park, Grant Park, Navy Pier, Zoo, the boat yards, skyline at night, from Navy Pier ride the Segway six hour tour down the beachfront to Oak Beach and back thru the park and downtown neighborhoods. I’ve been in major cities all over the world and this rates in my top three.
Don’t forget to sample the food too … Harry Carrie, Mulroney’s, Bubba Gumps, Chicago pizzas and hotdogs, the ball parks, ride the “EL” just out to the end and back. All these years I wondered why would anyone go on holiday in Chicago. I’m back to say I’M GOING BACK real soon. Why did I wait so long for this adventure.

DON’T FORGET YOUR CAMERA
