Grandma’s Packin’ ... A Parachute
At 88, even the sky isn’t the limit for Eloise Dykstra
This past weekend, Newtonian Eloise Dykstra did something few people half her age get to do. She went skydiving.
“It’s just something I got to thinking about doing,” she said. “So, if I was going to do it, I thought I’d better get it done now. I just called and set up the date.”
Calling up and scheduling a skydiving outing isn’t something most people do. They especially don’t do it when they are 88 years young. But it’s far from the first adventure she’s had over the years.
