    A few raindrops on my face, makes me know I’m still alive. I’ve been known to arrive Friday instead of Thursday, if rain was forecast, but the thought of not seeing y’all would not be happy face.
    I’m packing my rain gear and figure a raindrop or two in my mug will not make a ripple in my coffee...

    Look forward to checking those paracord bracelet buckles in person. Had not seen those.

    Yes, it does add challenge.
    If there is going to be quite a bit of rain, one thing I'll likely do is use one of the cheaper, larger store bought tarps over my hammock. That gives my two dogs and their beds more coverage.
    Hope ya'll can make it.

    Sometimes I prefer an umbrella around camp rather than a rain coat... maybe a rain coat unzipped with hood down for better ventilation and umbrella overhead.
    Life goes on.

    I schedule has changed in the Smokies, so we are going to have to postpone her inaugural hammock hang for a while. One of these days I’m going to get to hang in the Highlands. i wish youcall the best.

    Hopefully I just added my name to the list (trying from phone) and this text doesn't show up on the forums as large as it is looking on my phone.... See you guys on Friday!
