You know some smart-*** trucker would blow his horn if he saw you there. I know this because I used to be a smart-*** trucker.

I made another stand with treated 2x4's instead of the Oak. It works great. I found a 16" hex bolt to use for my stake. Here are some photos:

One trick I learned is to make sure you put the stake straight in the ground and not at an angle. Otherwise it will come out easier. This 16" hex bolt works very well.

I got to play with the hammock tonight and although i need to go study up on knots to tie that can be untied after laying in the hammock, i did make a graphic to express how i feel about my new Hennessy-

O.k Attroll, anyone else. Can we make this happen?

Now a shirt like that would get peoples attention.
How about the new design that is in the works on the front and
this design on the back?

I like that idea...how about a "shelter evolution" by itself? Start with a cave, then your old army tent, then a couple others, maybe a Shires or a tarp, then a hammock?
