    Smile Greetings from Rockford, MI!

    Hi Everyone,

    I discovered the Hennessy Hammock earlier this year and I've been absolutely obsessed with it ever since. I'm a long time backpacker and kayaker, but the concept of hammock camping was a TOTAL game-changer in the overall camping experience.

    I found out about this forum after seeing a few YouTube clips that referenced the site (all of which were really cool videos, btw). I wasn't able to get out and hang as much as I would've liked to this summer (I'm currently in school getting a masters degree in business - which has consumed a lot of my free time), but I'm hoping to hit it hard in 2013 as my schedule clears up.

    I reside in Rockford, MI (just north of Grand Rapids) and I look forward to learning more from everybody!

    Thanks for the invite Dblcorona, much appreciated! Unfortunately, I have a previously scheduled event on the 13th in Muskegon, but hopefully I'll make it to the next one. I hope y'all have fun!
