    I constantly am looking at other hammocks, but I always come back to my Blackbird.

    ===> Yup! Have worked for Bean at one of their retail stores in Mass for almost five years. I work on the sales floor for active outdoor sports - camping, hiking, fishing, snowshoeing, biking, etc. I teach Fly Casting, Fishing, and Fly Tying in their Outdoor Discovery Schools and clinics, and also some wilderness Bushcraft skills on some outings this year.

    I love the employee discount!!

    ===> Really? Wow! It is a small world! The next time you drop by, look or ask for "CHAAAZ" and say hello! We might meet at the next NEHHA, too. I have only been working Sundays lately - using the rest for Bush Time.
