    Converting the Wife!

    Got my first WBBB Monday in the mail and hung it in the house. My wife slept in it that night and consented to try hanging on our camping trip this weekend. I've got another one coming this Thursday so we will be twin hangers. Hope everything goes well, although it is going to still be 85-90 degrees at 7000 elevation. Was really ticked when a once used ENO doublenest , tarp, and bugnet was stolen from my vehicle in Arnold, CA last weekend.

    Good luck with the wife. If you manage to convince her to be your hiking/hanging partner, the loss of the ENO will be a small price to pay.

    Doc, sorry to hear about the theft of your ENO and other gear. Why we tolerate thieves in this country is beyond me.

    Good job on getting your wive into a hammock! Glad you have another WBBB or you would have been out of luck

    Can't leave anything unattended these days. Someone stole a trail cam that I left strapped to a tree a couple of weeks ago. Vehicles left parked at a trailhead are targets.

    It was 103 yesterday and too hot for my wife to go motorcycle camping, so we stayed home. One of my daughters slept in one of the hammocks in the house. The other one's turn tonight.
