Wow! What an amazing feeling to free fall from 10,000 feet. It was wonderful! As you can see I went with my dad, and I think he may have loved it even more than I did, if that's possible! He is now convinced that we should go through the training program for skydiving so that we could go on our own and take other people! For now I think I'll stick to teaching! :-) Thanks to all my family members who bought the tickets for us!

Questions for Students ~
1. Mrs. Goodnough jumped out of the plane at 10,000 feet. Her instructor pulled the parachute at 5,500 feet. How many feet did she free fall for?
2. Got that answer? OK, if I fell for 30 seconds, how fast was I falling (feet per second)?

UNBELIEVABLE....It looks like lots of fun....from the ground, that is. Good for you. Was that on your "Bucket List?"

While you are off in New Zealand having fun, being on vacation, 27 hours away from home, I am sitting here jealously in Syracuse wishing I could go sky diving and to New Zealand too.
Hope you are having fun.
