    Cool Midwest guy <-----

    Hey fellas,
    Ive been around for a while, great site!

    I'm in Saint Louis, Missouri, love heading to the Ozarks. I climb into the occasional cave to explore. I really enjoy photography as a hobby, right now I have a sony AX550 but hope to upgrade soon. I am also big into sport motorcycling, I ride a 2007 Yamaha R6s.

    I hang in a HH UL backpacker also have an ENO double.

    Have a few tarps but my favorite is the spinnUL Big Mamajamba.

    Suspension normally i roll with the straps on dutch clips with a toggle and im in the process of making some whoopie slings.

    Right now i have the JRB The No Sniveller and nest but i need to make something for the hotter days!

    ...well thats it for now ill be talking to you fellas!

    Welcome Rhino. Looks like your off to a good start you even have some of the acronyms and terminology ( you spell better than I do too).

    Welcome Rhino! I usually make it to St. Louis every other year to visit my sister and her family. I spent my early beer drinking formative years in Manchester/Ballwin. Glad to have you here. I'm hoping to make a hangout sometime in the Ozarks.

    St. Louis, eh? I grew up across the river in Edwardsville, IL. though now I'm a Smoky Mountain man.
    If there's two ways to take my comments, assume it's the lighter and funnier of the two.
