Glad nobody got hurt

well they could have been pic's save the fact that my ever loving wife was to busy giggling her head off

but I have to admit it was funny. No injuries thank for asking save my dignity taking a dent.

If I hit my head on the patio stones, my wife would have been checking to see if I cracked any stones!

Stretching it out (like you should) doesn't always do the trick.

A while back, I grabbed the edge with one hand and spread the hammock out behind me with the other hand. As I sat down, I wondered why I saw two edges in my hand. I figured it out as I went over backwards into the bug net. Hello deck!

I can't be the only one who's mistaken my UQ in the dark for the hammock and ended up on the ground, still in my UQ, can I

?

In order for there to be meaning in your fall, what straps did you have so we can avoid them?

I've hung many times on a set of Harbor Freight straps, and I'm 210#, though I don't use them anymore...

I had to lay there for about 5 minutes before I could move, 30 seconds of that cause I couldn't breath because the wind was knocked out of me, The rest of the time I couldn't breath cause I was laughing so hard.

Thankfully I had spare shock cord with me to repair the UQ suspension.
