    BNS = Best Nites Sleep

    Did my first every hang last nite, with 2 of my boys and a friend of there's. We weren't in the deep woods or out on the trail somewhere, only behind one of my sons home in a little section of woods.
    I was in my new WBBB 1.1 dbl, one son was in his DIY orange gathered end hammock with diy whoopie slings. My other son was in his ENO with Bug Net, and there friend was in his ENO.
    I threw up my Camo SF to cover my WB and the DIY and broke a branch to make a spreader bar for one end of the two hammocks under the tarp (worked great).
    We didn't get there until after dark and it was sprinkling on an off, so had to try that new tarp out
    Got to bed around midnite, took me all of 3 minutes probably to get to sleep and what a sleep it was. I don't think I have slept that well in a long time and felt so rested this morning at 5:30 when I woke up. I just turned over and went back to sleep and didn't get up till almost 7.
    Love my WB and couldn't believe how much the foot box helped in getting a good lay ( I just thought a gathered end hammock was nice ).
    We all slept well, but I think I slept the best
    Threw in a few pics.....proof

    Thanks to WB, Stu, Arrowhead Gear and DIY Gear for making this all possible. All great vendors who can be found here at HF. All of them can be found here and are great to work with.

    It was great except for the ticks we all had the following day Time to buy some kind of repellent. Of course it didn't help, stumbling around in the dark to get hung either, thats probably why so many ticks
