Wonderful Boogie

[tinman]

The 7th annual St. Patrick's Day Celebration Boogie is in the books. This year, the inclimate weather sandwiched two very jumpable days. Friday and Saturday were awesome. The hot air balloon and the three otters were busy. After dark, the beverages flowed cold, the food was hot, and everybody had a grand old time. On Saturday afternoon, a marriage proposal was made and accepted in front of everyone on the ground. The newly engaged couple celebrated with a sunset jump.

While I was busy jumping with old friends and new, my wife, Chris bicycled around, chased hot air balloons, grabbed some great BBQ at the Wild Chicken Festival, and took photographs of the action. Honestly, we couldn't have asked for a better boogie (except, maybe, jump weather for all four days, but, it was March in Georgia....). My earnest thanks go to Chris Spence and everyone who pitched in unselfishly to bring it all together. I'd thank you all by name, but then, this post would be as boring as an acceptance speech at the Academy Awards.

A special shout out to Don Cripps. Rakkasan, you inspire me to be jumping into my eighties. I hope to share the air with you again.
