I'm too old to clearly understand the younger generation, Chris. They seem to like the thrill and the rush of it.

I took an exercise walk at the airport today, and was able to catch a few 
images.  First, one of the Vanderbilt LifeFlight helicopters left on another 
mission.

Then, I found a friendly young lady who was about to make her first tandem 
skydiving jump.  She agreed to let me take her picture.

I watched as the instructor donned his parachute in the area where the chutes 
are repacked after each jump.

And then, I watched as the pilot and passengers boarded the Cessna Caravan jump 
aircraft.
