    Book: Spinky Sulks by William Steig

    Is anyone familiar with the book Spinky Sulks? About a boy who feels he is insulted by his family, and as such spends days in his hammock, sulking.

    I just recently got into the idea of hammock camping as a stress relief during this pandemic, havent actually camped out yet. I kinda sympathize with a kid wanting to run away and be alone for a time. Hard to do as an adult with dependents.

    Havent actually camped out yet or graduated from my Amazon ENO clone hammock. However, I have consummed so much content on the matter: Shug videos, HYOH podcasts, multiple reviewers, multiple vendor's site, I have even been practicing hitches and knots while on Zoom calls. It is amazing how much there is on the matter. Thank you to everyone who has shared their time and knowledge!

    Welcome to the club! Reading about stuff, practicing knots, etc. is pretty relaxing on its own. Just wait until you get into DIY.

    Have never seen that book, but want to now!

    It is a great way to relax and connect with some peace and quiet. You start to hear wind, the rustle of leaves, birds and yes, sometimes neighbors coming and going. Once I slow down and focus on none of the distractions I feel refreshed.

    Give it a whirl!
