    Talking TN girl is interested

    Hello all,
    I am interested in using a hammock/tarp for motorcycle camping. The ground is not my friend.
    I'm wanting to do a "hang" so I can check out others ideas, hammocks, etc.
    I just bought a kelty tarp and am learning to tie the apropriate knots, thank god for youtube.
    wish me luck!

    I guess I will spill the beans. I am getting ready to post an upcoming hang at Horse Creek. I am sure there will be a good variety of hammocks there.

    Who cares about showers, gourmet food, using flush toilets. Just keep on walking and being away from it all.

    There are times that the only way you can do something is to do it alone.

    Welcome from Nashville, Melbox...



    I think Horse Creek is just outside of Celina up near Dale Hollow? I'd be interested if the temps ever drop below 100
    Afoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,
    Healthy, free, the world before me,
    The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.
