As a retired teacher of 26 years, I've decided to pamper myself. I did manage to teach without ever raising my voice to a student, something I promised myself I wanted to achieve. Some years those high schoolers sure wanted to test if I was serious about wanting to keep my perfect record. Thankfully I did. I felt that if mutual respect was achieved more curriculum could be taught.
I decided that some lounging in the back yard on a hammock would be fun. I do love the view from my backyard.

I am on HammockForums, looking for information.
First thing I bought was an underquilt. Probably not the proper order to do things, but I did get it second-hand for some savings over new and it is in route.
I bought this Cedar Ridge Outdoors one:
20F Temp.
52 inches long and 48 inches wide.
3 ounces of overstuff.
Draft collars on each end.
1 pound 5 ounces w/stuff sack.

So next I ordered a Hammock. I ordered a Warbonnet Blackbird original. I'm 5'7" so I didn't think I needed the longer one.
It is in route to me. It is this one, in their blem section:
- Suspension Options:Polyester Webbing w/ Buckles + Pair of Carabiners
- SALE:Lightweight Double Layer Original BlackBird Hammock (RLDBB-DT)
Now I'm looking for a Hammock Stand. Don't have one in route yet and hope to learn about them here.
So that's a little bit about me and why I joined the forum.
