    who's your "helper"

    Many of us DIYers have helpers; ie. wives, husbands, kids, etc. I have another helper...

    Cats LOVE hammocks... at least ours do. The older cat (13) meows until I unzip and pick her up. My daugther's kitten (9 months) jumps on the netting and looks for a way in...

    They make nice warmers on cold nights...

    Agreed. I'm not thrilled when the cat jumps on my bugnet. Once in the hammock, I keep the cat contained to my TQ...

    My two "helpers" like to lay on what ever material I happen to be sewing, play with the thread going into the sewing machine, knock things to the floor(apparently just for the sheer joy of watching things fall), scratch my leg when they are hungry, and generally make a nuisance of them selves. I dont know how I would get anything done with out them!
    FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
    run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
    bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )


    Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

    Ditto! I've dubbed my Siamese, "Hammock Monkey," because she can't stand it if I'm in the hammock w/out her.

    My ol' cat Boots used to love my hammock.....
    He died in a coyote fight last year. Still wait for him to jump right in with me and make biscuits on my TQ.

    oh, shug, now I'm sad.

    Your videos (as crazy as they are) got me into hammocking.

    Hope I've brought up some good memories.
