    Question Needing hanging ideas PLEASE.....

    Ok guys...I have Speer style hammock right now and my husband and I were getting ready to go to beach soon for our summer vacation...problem is that the campground we stay at doesn't want things hanging from trees for safety hazards of someone walking into them. So I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on my treeless hanging adventure. I have capability of some DIY projects for stands if that ends up being best route. Was just hoping to be able to doze with the good ocean breeze while I'm down there. Am I better off to just try finding a different hammock with a contemporary stand or what? Thanks for any input!

    +1 on this. Pretty easy to make, not very expensive, fully functional, easy to haul/store, and I imagine you will find lots of other times/places to use them.
