Gonna try for this one...
We LOVES you, Rider - you were spoken about fondly by many, so know you were with us in our hearts.
Emergen-C is nice "tea" when made with hot water...
Last year he wore a shirt that said, "Kiss me, I'm Dutch."
So I kissed him.
But I was very considerate about it. :rolleyes:
Doesn't seem like too much to ask. Thank you for all your hard work - see you soon!!!
Oooooh...NICE! I only have top quilt - 0* Burrow - custom made for short person - love it passionately!
The Hennessey sounds great, Rich! I will take you up on the offer, thanks very much! -Duffy
Looks like we will be short a tarp for the hang. If anyone has one we can borrow or that is for sale (cheap), we'd sure appreciate it!!
Duffy and MightyMouse

OH!!! I thought being so busy this summer, having little time to spend on the computer and being too tired to bother most of the time, I was sure I'd missed the drone video and it was on my list of...
According to people who are still there, we left Millinocket too early - The First Snow arrived the next day.
In my opinion, we (insert Agent 86 voice here) 'missed it by thaaat much.' ...
I haven't even read the signup! Duffy took care of that part, but if he says the whole thing, then that's what he has planned. Gonna TRY to get the kids to bring the little one for Saturday fun,...
Oh...I've missed you so, Florida Hangers...
I'll take a couple bathroom cleaning shifts and will happily help serve meals.
Three things:
Thanks, everyone, for a wonderful time.
We have a custom Devil Woman flag with 2 hammockers in silhouette against the moonrise - might be a pic in here somewhere. It's great and I...
I still have my first one, with my trail name in magic marker!
By the way, Gumbo, the woman I invited can't make it, she has to work.
Duffy and I are section hiking the AT. Look forward to talking with you. We'll arrive Friday.
You read right, WaffleBox.
Yeah, like that's new - I've been short for my whole life. :rolleyes:
And we only need one patch, thanksabunch!
Oh, you funny guy, lilricky...:laugh:
I'm in for prep, KP or cleaning or trash or bathroom duty any time the old man doesn't have other plans for the two of us. Sorry I can't be more specific.
Will there be any that aren't marinated? I love 'em but can't have the Nectar... :laugh:
lilricky's in??? AWESOMENESS!
Look forward to seeing y'all at FHV!
I am so excited, I even invited someone I've never met. Will let you know soon as I know if she's coming. She'll be tent camping...
Kewl!
That's what I thought I remembered hearing, Grinder, thank you! Look forward to seeing YOU, too, of course!
:shades:
I'll see if I can find Chuck' s phone number and send him a text.
Any word whether Grinder and/ or Chattanooga Chuck will be around?
OHmymy...old dog, MAD777, lilricky, timberrr, gumbo, FLRider...AND Dutch???
Be still, my heart!
Life is good in the western Panhandle, but I can hardly wait to see y'all again!
When we encountered unseasonably hot weather on the Foothills Trail in Carolina a few years back, yes, I did go commando. It depends on weather, really. I use both of the options you mention.
No...
I haven't had any trouble with mosquitos. I carry DEET, but have only used it twice, I think. The blood-thirsty vines in Central Florida have left permanent scars...but the trade-off is one I'm not...
If I'm in Florida, I use a cotton percale twin size sheet, doubled. Anywhere else, I keep my Burrow handy. I sleep cold.
nc_robin, mine is Mountain Hardware brand. Duffy got it for me in about 2005, I think? Checking their website, I don't find one like it at all...but it's a combination of the men's kilt and the...
I am 4'11", 109lbs and the nice man made my 0* Burrow just my size. So did the nice man at ULA who made my small Camino panel loader. Love those guys. Hope to meet them some day. My Blackbird fits...
My mind is going thru things to make in my little dutch oven, see if I can contribute something more than just my willingness to stir and eat! :laugh:
I am SOOO excited!!!
Been married working on 30 years...love sleeping in the bedroom hammock Duffy made for me from a $15 crinkle taffeta tablecloth (I had to teach him how to pronounce 'taffeta')...so he made one for...
Welcome! You've met some people on here that I consider the closest friends I've ever had, even though I only see them 2 or 3 times a year, at most! That Florida Hang is top of my list, and Gumbo,...
Let's shoot for next summer, Gumbo!
We will have bacon, too, Floridahanger, but I don't want mine in with the pancake!
lilricky is just one example of the caliber of Good People in this group. You are all masters of hospitality and friendship. I miss you guys...if I was going on this one, I'd share my NEW breakfast...
I don't know where else to post this...
Thought of y'all OFTEN over this weekend, campering with the ol man and BEEootiful Granddaughter. Had to check out my new-to-me hammock, of course, while...
I went with a custom-fit 0° Burrow TQ. I sleep cold, and I'm 4'11" most days. My UQ is diy down puffer jackets. Got a custom Camino pack, too...you're right about the difference in having equipment...
It would be a great first out - with some of the BEST PEOPLE!!! While heat may be rough, it rained enough 2 years ago to cool things down, the overcast skies kept us from baking, AND the 'hidden...
Like FloridaHanger, I don't drink coffee - or anything else, for that matter - in my hammock, either the home one or on the trail. What I use is an Oxi-Clean container, which doubles as the...
US, neither, Gumbo -- but there will be a short section of the AT before end of August!
Got a custom-sized Hammock Gear 0° Burrow (I'm little). Created and shipped almost overnight, it seems...could not love it more.
FloridaHanger makes sure of the fire and usually water, too. Shouldn't be a problem. Color me envious.
I am not sorry to miss the heat but I sure do miss the company...
