41

Last week, former President George H.W. Bush celebrated his 85th birthday by skydiving. No matter what your political views are, you have to admit it is pretty cool to see an 85 year old man grab life by the horns and make the most of everyday. I thought it was amazing, exciting and inspirational. I can't imagine ME jumping out of an airplane let alone someone older than my Papa!! It was pretty cool. And seeing Barbara going over and kissing him and the Golden Knight who brought him back to safety...too cute.

Now, I know I just said I can't imagine skydiving, but I probably would if I had the insurance of going tandem with the Army Golden Knight's parachute team....I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing!
