Girlfriend at the time found out where I was going on those weekends and said, it's either me or parachuting. I should have gone parachuting.

There is a place in Miami that is a converted wind-tunnel that simulates freefall conditions in a 'tower' that would be fun to try.

Hope everyone has a good Thursday.
