    Greetings from San Diego

    Hi there, my name is Ken and I've been following the forum for awhile but only recently registered. I love sleeping in a hammock and even have one set up in my bedroom. I rotate back and forth between my bed and hammock. I like to backpack and fly fish and have used both tents and hammocks but I am gearing up to spend more and more trips in just my hammock. Looking forward to bouncing ideas off you guys and learning from your experiences.

    Hey Ken,

    Welcome from the cold, snowy tundra of Massachusetts. I used to live in San Diego, Oceanside and Pacific Beach. Relatives in Chula Vista. I miss the weather but I don't miss the California taxes.

    It's always nice to have a new member ring in. You'll find this forum friendly and helpful. We're all enthusiasts and there is so much that can be learned. Just ask and believe me, you'll get lots of feedback.

    There's a fellow out in Cali who goes by the name of Pharraoh. He is very active on YouTube. He does very interesting hikes and overnights in the San Gabriels and is quite a historian in his own right with regard to the old miners from two centuries ago right up to present.

    You might want to check him out on YouTube, he is very interesting and very knowledgeable regarding backpacking, shelter systems, hammocks, etc.... Just a thought.

    All the best, and welcome aboard !
