    Howdy All!

    Hello everybody! Just figured I would introduce myself around. I’ve been camping and backpacking all my life (being from the backwoods myself and all). I started hanging when I was a kid because I like to be comfortable and never stopped. It’s still the most comfortable sleep I ever get! I recently just got back into backpacking again after a life changing experience (I’m a Police Officer…got hit ). Now with the upcoming medical retirement I should have much more time to spend in the ol piney woods. I purchased a Hennessey Explorer Deluxe to try the new style of hammock camping (always just used an old webbed hammock before). The Hennessy is ok but I would love a Clark NX-250! Anyway, Shug’s videos led me here (hilarious and educational!! ) and I hope to learn all I can. That’s all!

    Welcome to the hangin-house from here in southern VA!

    Former police officer as well, although my choice to leave was family related, not medically needed. Here's hopes for a fulfilling "afterlife", although it's almost impossible to let go of that mindset . . . Oh how well I know!
