Good Morning all!
My name is Jon and I live in a town called Smyrna (right outside Nashville). Before moving here, I lived all over the country while I was in the Army. I recently got into hammocks because I wanted to try one while camping. In the last 10 months I've gone camping more times than I did growing up and have fallen back in love with being in the wild. One of those trips, I strung up a hammock and slept pretty well.
Since then, I got a few things to go with the hammock for colder weather and a better tarp that I can use even if I don't bring a hammock along. My favorite thing so far is the ability to not have to bring everything and deal with tent poles. On my last weekend get away with my girlfriend and little kids (6 and 7), we stayed at a small hippy cabin but set a few hammocks up to lounge in. My girls loved setting up and relaxing in the hammocks. When we returned, I got them each an Wise Owl Owlette hammock and hung them in their rooms getting rid of their old beat up toddler beds. We will see this weekend how they enjoy them. Hopefully, in the coming weeks I can get away for a solo trip to one of the islands in Percy Priest lake and camp out (would be my first Solo Kayak Camp/Hammock Camp trip).
Any insights into kids hammock camping or kids and hammocks is appreciated! Thanks for having me!
