    First Night Sleeping in a Hammock

    A cool front came through leaving a nice forecasted overnight low of 59* so thought I'd hang in the back yard for the first time in the new gear.

    I learned a couple of things right away. It's all about quilts because sleeping in a hammock is a different kind of animal.

    Since my underquilt is not yet made I wrestled with a pad and tried to use the sleeping bag as ... a sleeping bag. So I must jump on my quilts projects right away because I really liked sleeping out in the hammock and will like it more without the slippery gear.

    I also learned that the hummingbirds start their day early.

    From the posts this morning it seems many of us experienced our first cool night out in a while. I had to break out the pad to keep things comfy. Saving up for an UQ, looking forward to testing it out.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!
