    Hanging Clinic at REI

    The other day I was buying some netting at REI for the three hammocks I just finished and the manager was the one doing the cutting and his curiosity got the best of him.

    After chatting for a while he asked if I would give a clinic on hammocks sometime, so I think I'll take him up on it. I won't know when I'll be available until after easter... anyone in the area feel like coming along and showing off gear/answering questions also?

    I'd like to do it before SEHHA so if anybody is interested they can go to that too and get a real crash course.

    That's totally awesome! Here in St. Louis they're entirely devoted to bicyclists. Good luck with it

    There are three in the Raleigh area. Which one is it?
    When it goes over their heads, it really doesn't matter how high it is.

    I wish I lived closer. I would love to do something like that.

    If I can swing it, I'll come too. It would be nice to hook that in with an overnight hangout nearby maybe. (nearby State Park?)
