Well it looks like I can get about another dozen cases if anyone else wants one. I looked into shipping and it's going to be roughly $30. I think $90 for a box of MREs is ridiculous so what i'm going...
I'm going to mail a case after work today so I will post the cost of shipping.

According to http://www.mreinfo.com/us/mre/mre-menus.html this is the MRE Menu. It seems much more accurate, though i personally have never seen number 15 - Mexican Style Chicken stew
01 - Chili...
It's a newer menu than this because it contains Asian Style Beef Strips. I think they are in case A. I am not sure which item it replaced, but I want to say there is no more veggie burger.
These...
I have on hand two full unopened MRE boxes. One is case A and the other case B. These are new cases and feature the newest menu items. If anyone if interested I am asking $60 a box plus shipping. If...
for that price I would get an UQ from one of the cottage guys here on the forum. I have one of LeighLo's 3/4 40* UQs and I love it.
I enjoyed meeting all of you. The hike Saturday was great. Topped off by an awesome dinner and ice cream when we got back to camp. I had a great time.
I just ordered one for myself after seeing yours at the hang this weekend. I can't wait!
Yeppers! I picked up a Sawyer water filter and a Blackrock head lamp. Been wanting those for a while now.
I stopped at REI to get foods and a water filter. Was planning on spending about $100 and ended up dropping $230 on gear. This trip is costing me way more than I planned.
What about fishing? is there a place to fish? Worth bringing in a pole?
I'm game for a serving, if for no other reason than I'll be super jealous watching everyone else eat it while i'm eating rehydrated food. Let me know if i need to bring some ingredients or some cash...
I have always used a sleeping bag instead of a TQ. I just bought a Marmot +20 semi-rectangular to get me through the winter. I can't sleep with my legs straight out like a mummy bag or TQ requires.
Hey now if the wife wants to be the only one sewing you should get her cracking on all that gear you want LOL.
But really the way I look at it, its another skill I've learned. Can't go wrong with...
After I made my first couple hammocks, I went and fixed the seams in a pair of pants. Then my gf had me add some straps to a previously strapless dress. I get a kick when she tells people I sewed...
I agree with putting the state in the title. I for one am not familiar with most state parks. I think the titles should have the date as well.
haha this is what you've brought to mind

In all the discussion i've read about MSH everyone talks of putting the whoopie on the knot. I've done this and it's great and all. But i've recently started using the MSH to attach the biner and...
I took some pictures of my setup today. I've been trying to hang in different spots. This one is not the most hidden, but it's Sunday so I wasn't really concerned with being stealth.
View from...
I don't know, she's going to ask off. It'll be good to see you again too.
Edit: I'm riding solo!
I am in. Finally a hang scheduled on a weekend I have off!! I would be down for a group dinner. Let me know if I need to bring some ingredients.
The one that I was in on? Its been in the for sale section this whole time. Why'd it get moved?
Thanks for all the great advise Cannibal. The short answer is no, I have not camped in these temperatures. I've only been hanging since March of this year. I am mentally prepared. Psychically, It...
I learned that the father the trees are apart the higher you need to go to get the 30* mark. The trees are about 20ft or more apart and i have to hang about as high as I can reach.
Friday was...
I don't think you guys are being hard arses. I understand all your concerns and I appreciate it, I really do. I'm not saying that i'm indispensable. Any joe-schmoe could do what I do after a month...
Yes I am in the delayed entry program. And yes I have talked to my recruiter about shipping early. Right now my ship out date is next May, but the station commander says he can get me out within...
I'd jump on this if I wasn't hovering in the annoying zone between large and medium.
OK people listen up...there is no chance of me getting fired. Period. Case closed. Not gonna happen. I work for a military suport contract and I'm not only one of the hardest working, most...
I appreciate all the concern. Ill take pictures at some point.
Speed, volume, intensity. Ssgt. says you always show those and you'll be fine.
It occurs to me that it may ease some minds to know its a 24hr facility so there are always people there. So it wont seem out of place that I'm there at odd hours.
There are cameras but non that point back there. I'm really not worried about it.
I have a Leigh Lo Summer UQ that'll take me down to 40* I don't anticipate it getting much colder any time...
I appreciate the heads up. The worst they'll happen is a sit down with my manager and being nicely asked not spend the night on the premises.
I did the same thing September 2010 except I didn't...
I've been eyeballing this foot http://www.amazon.com/Distinctive-Narrow-Rolled-Machine-Presser/dp/B00325ZJYC for a month or so now.
HAHA you're telling me. I joined the Marine Corps last month and ship to Paris Island in a few months.
As far as police, I don't have to worry. Our parking lot is fenced off and you have to go...
My lease ended yesterday and since all my roommates skipped out early there was no way I could renew. I was looking into apartments but decided I didn't want to pay application and admin fees,...
I just spent my first night in my Leigh Lo summer weight 2/3 rated 40*. It got down to 54*F and I was warm and comfy. Except my feet, but that's the 2/3 for you. Gonna have to get a pad or...
It depends on how long you're in the hammock too. A few hours, you might not notice. Sleep overnight and you'll wake up on the ground.

+1 for selection
+1 for shipping speed. He gets my stuff in the mail same day and I usually get the stuff two days after I place the order.
+10 for customer service. He once sent me grosgrain...
Does the code only discount Amsteel Blue or will it work for Zing-it too?
the code is hammockforum note there is no s.
I plan on going. It'll be Saturday afternoon before I can head that way. I have a recruit function that morning.
What about staying Sunday night as well? Are we talking $5 a night or just one...
I have a wally world bag that I had cut the zipper off and made into an UQ. Now that I have an UQ I've been thinking about sewing the footbox shut to make it into a TQ. Just haven't figured out...
I'm glad someone got it. Saved me some money I really didn't need to spend. lol
.....I'm going to my parent's tomorrow. Let me see what mom has got to say about an early Christmas present. Maybe my dad will want it for himself. I'm not asking you to hold it. If someone else...
I wish I wasn't moving at the end of the month. Fixing the house in hopes of getting security deposit back, saving for security deposit on next place, and last round of bills has wiped out any...
Dang it I have to work that weekend. Shame I'm going to miss out.
