    Jolly Rancher - Tablecloth Hammock

    Thanks to finding tableclothsfactory, a new hammock has been added.

    It's a monster 156x90 and is very comfy indeed.

    I expect to use this as Camp Director this summer.

    Somewhat patiently awaiting my order...
    It should arrive Saturday, just in time to wash, dry and test out. I chose the 90x156 monster in apple green.

    Hammock Limerick

    There once was a man from this nation,
    Who wanted a restful vacation,
    In woods he found glee
    Hanging from a tree
    So his tent became a donation.
