    Hanging in the Knobstone

    First week of June myself and 3 other trail partners ventured out to Spurgeon Hollow trail head to do the 43 miles of Knobstone trail. I photographed some and journeled some as well.

    While we didn't finish due to some injuries, we did have a great time. October we are doing another "hanging in the knobstone" to finish out the trail....

    Those looks like some heavy tarps! I only know because that's what I took hiking for the longest time, as can be seen here:

    oldgringo's reply to my worrying about owning extra hammocks:

    How many pairs of underwear do you own? Do you refer to them as "extras", simply because you're not wearing all of them as we speak?
