    How it do?

    I've recently swung into the hammock scene when I was introduced to a Warbonnet by a good friend while nursing the most epic hang over of my entire life. Needless to say, it made me feel better. Never before had I experienced such relaxation. So on that monumental day I gave up binge drinking and took up hanging.

    Found a great deal on a Hennessy Expedition from my friend John, goes by Kudzu round here, and we started looking for epic hangs.

    My biggest hobby has always been rock crawling and 4x4s so I've gotta learn to transition from the welder and impact gun, to the needle and thread as the tools of choice for making gear for back-packing and such.

    Well, here's a couple pics from our recent romp on Cumberland Island.
    We like live oaks... a lot.

    Enjoy.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of hanging, but you don't have to give up drinking.
