Middle Tenn Hangout
Hi gang, the Mid Tn Hangout is BACK ON for May 2nd-May 4th. Sorry for the confusion and time delay but when Neo asked for someone else to host it, I wasn't sure I was up to it. But anyway after thinking it through I decided to become the host for the Mid Tn Hangouts. I don't have very much experience compared to many of you but I'm learning and many hammock hangers with experience have been coming to these hangings so I think we will be alright. We will be having a couple of these each year one in the spring and one in the fall and maybe others if there is enough interest. These hangouts will be mostly to meet other hammock hangers and to share ideas and show each other the different equipment we all have. These will be really good hangouts for people new to hammocks to come and put faces to the names on the forum and to see and learn from those that have been hanging a while. While there will be some trails for hiking we will be hanging in a campground. There is a restroom (no showers), fire rings and water faucets. There are plenty of trees to hang from. Also there is no cost for camping. We will be having a group campfire both Friday and Saturday and a group cookout on Saturday night(I'm planning on fixing my popular Dutch Oven peach cobbler), followed by a night hike for those interested. Saturday we can do some hiking, kayaking, site seeing or just hang around the camp talking hammocking. Let us know what kinds of things you want to do as some planning is required. The location is the Meriwether Lewis Campground on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Here is some links to help find out more about it.

General location is about 90 mile southwest of Nashville Tennessee. Over the next couple of weeks I'll be mentioning it some more to keep it on everyones mind. Make plans now to attend and if you have any questions feel free to ask. By the way Neo and his boys are planning on being there How about you? tnhillbilly
