Weather 80 Sunny and a bit windy, cool at night 50
"Everyone kept telling us did you go watch the skydivers?" "You just have to go down to Eloy". Ok, so where the heck is Eloy...... looking on the map we see that it is about 14 miles south and in the middle of no where. Well we are leaving in a couple of days so we decide lets pop down there and see what the big deal is. Ha Ha! As it turns out it is one of the premier places to learn to sky dive and train. Skydive Arizona. All afternoon on Saturday we watched them jumping - about every 20 minutes another group came down. It was beautiful. We heard a 70 year old lady was jumping - her family bought it for her birthday present!!!! You go girl. While we watched we saw an older gentleman landing tandem (I am guessing he was at least 75); it was so funny just before they landed you could hear him yelling "this is going to hurt, this is going to hurt and then you could hear him laughing a big hearty fun laugh". Awesome, I told Billy he can get me this for my 60th birthday..... it will take me that many more years to get up the courage! (7 more years) :)
