Hello, how did I get to this point. Well, I had been planning a motorcycle trip and was not really looking forward to sleeping on the ground. I have tried a number of sleeping pads etc, but could never find a comfortable solution. This had really hindered my camping experience. In any case, by some twist of fait while surfing the net, I stumbled onto Hammocks. So I figured, what the heck, I'll give it a try. Like a first love, the Hennessey Expedition bottom entrance was the first camping hammock I saw. The rear entry seamed very cool, however I ended up ordering the Zippered model. It seamed a number of people were going with a aftermarket mod for this, but I keep thinking about that bottom entrance. Oh well, if all goes well with hanging in the trees, I'll need a couple more hammocks for the kids. Good thing too, because I already have my eye on a WBBB and a Double ENO. I probably would have ordered the WBBB, but I wanted the double layered 1.7 and they were out of stock. I'm going to need an UQ and maybe a winter tarp too, but I have the summer to figure out what to do there. You know I think I was pretty logical and calm about this. I'll give it a try and see how it goes, but then I found Shug's videos and I just went nuts. I ordered my Hammock on Thurs, three days ago, and I'm dancing around here like a six-year-old that has to go pee, where's my Hammock, where's my Hammock, I got to go, got to go. And there are so may thing, modification and options, I don't even know where to start.
Well, I got to go pee now. I hope to be hanging out in the trees soon, maybe I'll see some of you there.
