    This is getting ridiculous

    I was in an outfitter store today looking for a tarp. No I don't know why becaue my two Hennesy's and my two Clarks have tarps and I have a kelty Noah 12 that will work just fine for the ENOS or the Grand Trunk. So anyway I am there to get a tarp. The sales guy shows me to the "hammock" area and they have no tarps other than cheap plastic ones but....
    The had a Hennesy Explorer hammock sitting there. Well I don't have ..... Didn't have and Explorer...... So I do now. This addiction is just stupid.

    You'll find no compassion here, hammock addiction will soon qualify for Workman's Comp.

    I agree with Gargoyle. I just got into this in the spring and I have four different hammocks, tarps, suspension systems, and even got my hands on a sewing machine and started making my own stuff! It's crazy but I love it and there are far worse things I could be doing with my time and money. Don't regret it, embrace it!
