    Darn you Hammock Forums!!

    Look what you made me do!!

    First, it was a HH Expedition. My first hammock, sweet...... every things cool.

    But wait.... that suspension does not seem too user friendly. Ahhhhhhhhhh.... whoopie slings to the rescue. Thanks Shug. Made my first mod. Sweet..... every things cool.

    But wait..... some guy name DUTCH decides to create all these cool shiny little accoutrements that make swingin from trees a little easier. Dutch Buckles on the credit card!! Sweet...... every things cool.

    But wait..... My girl kinda fell for my HH. So now I have just ordered a WBBB
    from Brandon that will be shipped in a day or so. Yeah Me!!!!!! Sweet..... every things cool right?

    Of course it's NOT COOL!! We all know whats coming.... UQ.....TQ.......Another tarp or 2 or 3, and whatever the hell Dutch can dream up!!

    Please stop I'm getting dizzy

    oops........ forgot about the Kelty Noah's 12

    This is only a couple months in to this new hobby......... is there a 12 step program available??

    Hi I'm PeaceDog and I have a problem!!

    Welcome to the club. I started with the Kelty Noah's 9 and now I have a Superfly. I'm sure my ENO will be upgraded to a blackbird as soon as funds allow. I'm trying to hold off on that for a while.
    I was told there'd be no math on this exam. ~T.D.

    PeaceDog,

    Perhaps it's just me, however I fail to see what your problem is . Everything you describe is perfectly normal for the folks here.

    Welcome to the madness that is Hammock Forums.

    Cheers

    I'm with Brian. What's the problem? We all understand that ..."need" for the gear.

    Just relax... and go with the flow. Don't harsh your buzz dude.... go with the flow.

    I know the feeling, all this stuff and the gadgets that go with it are irresistible.

    Best possible advice, don't just look at it and write about it, but get out there and use it. If you only hang once in a while, you've got way to much gear.
