    Boy's night out!!

    In the back yard.

    I got my two sons out last night to hang under the stars in the backyard. My 15yr old is handicap and this would be his first hang. He loved it. We had a great time and he's wanting to do again tonight. Looks like he's ready for his first hammock camping trip. The youngest would put the hammock up in his room if his mom would let him. It's going to be a little chilly tonight so I got them a blue pad from Wally world. Great time with family's is what it's all about. Here's our set up.

    Sounds like it was a good time. It's great that you share an interest with your children, and get to enjoy it along with them. Maybe someday I'll have a couple of my own and get to have the same kind of experiences. One can only wish that their future children will have in interest in hammocks.

    I think/know you'll find that what ever your interests are . . .

    . . . so there, your children will follow . . .

    Two parents with children offer a second option of interests.

    Way to go, Dad!

    I've taken my kids "camping" (not just in the woods, but in the back yard too) and you're right - they love it.
