    My take on 1 Tree, 3 Hammocks, 1 Tarp

    My grandsons came to visit last month and knowing of my new passion they wanted to know what it was all about.

    This what I came up with on the spur of the moment and we had a blast! They are ready to do it again. The low was 35° with no complaints!

    Kids and hammocks are a great combination!

    Folks, we have to be careful. It everyone finds out how much fun hanging is then "they" will want to stop it.

    Looks like the kids were having a great time. How did you get them out of the hammocks ??
