    Red face Strange question: Hammocking with Dentures

    Been thinking about this for a while. Since having my final 18 teeth extracted, and dentures "installed" June of last year, the question comes to me. When you're hammocking/camping/whatever, where do you put your teeth when sleeping? (of course this doesn't apply to everyone) Little cup at the head, ridgeline, backpack hung from the tree. Where? Maybe a poll is in order. Just kidding about the poll, the question is serious though.

    What about a dedicated stuff-sac that contains the cleaning liquid inside a tupperware type container?
    I ride a recumbent.
    I like to HAM it up on the CW.
    I use Linux.
    I play go.
    Of course I sleep in a hammock!

    Hang On!

    Put em in your underwear and they'll stay nice and warm. No wait. That makes me cross my legs just thinking about it. Yeah...a little dedicated bag hanging from the ridgeline should do it. (You want em close in case some tree huggin' babes come hiking through and wake you up needing some sage advise.) I've seen some new hard cases for the little cameras that would work perfect too, with a lanyard already attached.

    Just stick 'em in a Ziplock bag with ater/cleaning solution. Problem solved. You're welcome.

    Yea. a food grade type container (BPA free) and a stuff sack would be the best I would think of.

    for the tent I'd guess tupperware (tm) type container next to the pillow. (Sadly, haven't been camping since having the teeth done, sleeping in the backyard, while my teeth stay in the house probably doesn't count.) Doing that with the hammock would have that container subject to gravity. Wouldn't be "in" the underpants, would probably be "underbutt" though. *OW!. Something bit my butt!*
    Thinking now about something like a nalgene(tm again) but 16oz with a string to the ridgeline. Haven't tried to fit them into one of those yet . Just went to try, won't fit.
    Those little pelican type boxes would probably work. Wallyworld has a few in the camping section I'll look at next time I'm there.
    Thank you for the idea.

    Get a pack of these. They're cheap, sturdy, readily available and will work just fine. No need for something "from the camping department".

    AH HA! Looks like Hooch has the answer. I didn't even know ziploc MADE a container like that. Have to look for that at the wallyworld next time. Just needs a string or something , ridgeline organizer might have to be made. another project. woohoo. Although I'd still have to go through the camping/outdoor/fishing/hunting dept anyway. Tradition. And they might have something good on sale. I always have to look.

    Those ziplock containers look pretty nice. I can see a lot of uses for them on my river trips. I'll have to look for them. Thanks for the info Hooch.
