    Hammocking is great therapy.

    Seriously.
    I killed almost a whole afternoon yesterday in my back yard trying to figure out how to hang my hammock with only 1 tree. Limited success but then I dreamed about it all night.

    Just love tinkering with different knots, testing walmart pads versus UQ's, various cheap hammocks or gear I find online...I am pretty dense but still enjoy discovering the joy of hanging. Tinkering can't be beat. Certainly is LESS expensive compared to all the other hobbies i have!

    This isn't a meaningless post. It is great therapy. Being a victim of mental illness, I use hammocking and hiking to ease my mind. I would actually like to one day do a charity hike for mental illness, like watermonkey did for alzheimers and cancer.
