    Thank you so much for arranging this great hang (my first) and you have done it true justice in your report. I am glad to know that a little good scotch can erase any "black marks" on my record

    I did happen to notice there was no explanation or account of that nasty little gash on your shin obtained while retrieving your canoe.. I think?

    It was great to meet you all and I look forward to our paths crossing again!

    Cheers

    Yeah, I got that shaving..

    Seriously though, I store my canoe in my mom's garage about 6' off the ground on a custom wood shelf. Apparently someone had placed a piece of plywood/ formica under the canoe for storage so when, in the dark and at 4am, we pulled out the canoe, it fell right on my shin. I didn't realize how bad it was until we hit Huntsville. It does look nasty though.

    I like the shaving story better.

    Seriously Ryvr, those underquilts are powerful mojo and not to be trifled with! I don't think even wild horses could have kept those two petite ladies from forcing their way past you and jumping those hammocks the way they did. Not even wild horses I tell you!!!

    Oh and I probably got some of the facts and some of the sequence of events wrong. That was the best I could recollect. If any of you guys have anything you'd like included, just give me a shout and I'll be happy to edit our trip report.
