I been hanging for a while and got my dear old friends from JR. High and High School(Class of 1976) .... Hickery and The Turk into the hammock life.
We started camping together in 1970 and continued through backyard overnights, Scout Trips and then in College we all continued on.
I would come home from the circus and we would all go backpacking to catch up with each other.
Hickery is so into hammocks he joined the forum here.
The Turk goes in a hammock when we all go together.
