Placed the order a couple days ago after my great chats with David I pulled the trigger right when he got in the NylonD from Dutch. I will post a review when I get it and try it out! 11' Nylon D, single layer, will be using speedhooks for suspension.

That's a nice-looking hammock.

Congratulations!

I once spent Christmas alone on purpose because of a big family fight -- one relative made a racist remark about my daughter-in-law. So, I just left. Went to a motel.

Several didn't speak to me for quite a while but the remarks stopped.

There are worse things than being alone.

Ugh, yeah, I agree.

I find that my life is fairly low stress.

Hey Stephen! Merry Christmas, belatedly! Sorry to hear you spent it alone, but I hope you enjoyed it anyway. On the bright side, your hammock is half done, and should ship sometime next week! I love the Dark Olive Nylon that you chose, by the way, it's probably my favorite color (other than the Burnt Orange, anyway).

You are going to love that hammock and NylonD. The Dark Olive is my favorite color.

Thanks everyone! I am pumped to try out NylonD! I love earthtones, though the dark Orange was my close second.

Congrats on the hammock. When I picked up the NylonD I loved the color, I think my next hammock will be the Dark Olive with an OD green top cover and triangles

I spent Christmas alone, the first year was a bit tough, all my life there was a big Christmas. Now my kids are adults, husband died years ago at the old age of 35. The last of my elders died last year.

I decided it was time to start some new traditions. I went for a Hang, it was beautiful, white rain the first night, then it warmed up to 48, clear skies, it was just beautiful. I was truly happy, no stress what so ever, I really enjoyed the holiday, I will continue to Hang over the Christmas Holiday as long as I am able.

Some of my favorite Christmas holidays have been spent alone in the wilderness.

Congrats on your new hang!

Almost in the same boat. Spent Xmas alone, and on call for the hospital. Just me and the Cat. I just ordered my second Hammock brand, also a Netty, DL gray Argon 1.6. Already have a Breezy DL gray Argon 1.6. Sleep in it every night, and have since I received it about three months ago. Like it so much that the WBBB XLC has become redundant and too heavy, LOL. Dave and crew have excellent products, and customer service.

Cheers

WOW!

USPS was snail mail through this process but it arrived today, I finally got a chance to set it up in my living-room tonight after work.


WOW, that is all I can say, this thing takes everything that is good about my Kammock roo setup, cuts half the weight and gets rid of the shoulder squeeze. I am beyond impressed Meck family!

ENJOY!
