    Getting Closer

    Waiting on my BCO tarp to be delivered. Placed an order for Amsteel Blue for Whoopies and ridge lines. Also ordered seatbelt webbing for tree huggers. All this is to go with the ENO DN I got after christmas. Before long I'll be able to call my self a Hammock Camper. All this is from seeing some crazy red-headed uni-riding circus freak, while looking at alcohol stoves for hiking.
    That's also how I found this little gem of a forum.

    Now who could you be speaking of?!!

    Shug is a HF staple - part of the foundation here. Great way to get introduced.

    I propose we newbies band together and file a class action lawsuit against Shug for costing us a ridiculous amount of time and money pursuing this addiction he created. I'm one of his victims as well.

    He must be stopped!

    If - if he stood! Enough of ifs!
    He knew a path that wanted walking
    He knew a spring that wanted drinking
    A thought that wanted further thinking.
    A love that wanted re-renewing

    He's a clown. And a juggler.

    What's not to like? He hangs. And goes camping in very cold weather.

    Welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here. Congrats on your new gear.

    +1 on that although my 11yr old son thinks Shug is "the coolest"
    I keep collecting parts/pieces and trying my hand at more DIY projects... My wife thinks I'm out of my mind. Each time the postman delivers a package or I start a new project, she just looks at me and asks, "What now?"
