    hammock newbie

    Hey everyone DJ here and i'm hoping to get my first hammock in the next couple of weeks. Right now i'm probably going to get the Dream Hammock Roaming Gnome. I like to support the smaller businesses and i've heard nothing but great things about these guys. My plan for now is to use the hammock indoors in place of a bed. I've read a lot of stuff about the Turtledog stand and that looks like a really good option for me, assuming it fits in the room! i look forward to joining the hanging world!

    Welcome to HF from Georgia! Papa Smurf does a great job on his Dream Hammocks. You're gonna be one comfy hanger.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    Welcome from the Jersey Shore. If you want to check out some hammocks, the 7th Annual NJ Winter Hang is this weekend at Batona Camp in the Pine Barrens.

    Drop in on Saturday and maybe stay for the pot luck dinner and raffle Saturday night.
