That dog just chilling out in his/her own hammock, that is absolutely great! Is it a Blue Heeler?

I just want to say Thanks to all the members that made this hang possible!!!!! It was upsetting that we had to leave Grayson but it all worked out.....we made the best of a crappy situation and had a great time none the less!!!! It was great seeing all the old friends again and meeting and making some new ones!!!!! I hope everyone didn't have too much trouble getting home....as for me getting home wasn't the problem ....It's when I got home and had 22" of white stuff to deal with....GOPR0827.jpg

Sure glad to hear that!
I've been checking back several times a day (here & on Linville George .net) to see if anyone had herd how he was doing.
Thanks.

Hate I missed seeing all you guys. Hope I'll see you at another one before you make your move Maz.

That dog seems like the coolest companion. We have tried to get our dog in the hammock... but no go. How did you guys get him/her to get in and like it
