    "Hello" from a newbie

    Hello out there. I am 55 and just decided to start hammock camping. I was getting tired sleeping on the ground. I have been doing a lot of day hikes, but not much overnight. I have been experimenting wit a DD and a Trek Light double. I ordered a Blackbird but have not received it yet.

    I want to thank everyone in advance for all of the tips and help. God bless. John
