    Hello from N/W Illinois

    I've been hangin' for nearly a year now and im not planning on sleeping in a tent unless i have to, i have been tent camping for close to 30 yrs now, i have accumulated tons of gear and still love my favorite Big Agnes gear, i have always been curious of hammocks but never really considered trying one until my older brother had got one and finally i tried it and was bitten by the swing bug,this has rekindled my love for adventure of the outdoors and i couldn't imagine a better theraputic life style in my time of crisiss, i find all the youtube videos quite entertaining and full of fantastic advice,now when i visit family on the weekends/holidays i stay outdoors in my hammock snow,rain or shine im good, come to think of it i have had a couple cheapo hammocks in my life time but never even tried setting them up, what an awakening i had, THE FORREST IS MY CHAPPEL! Thank's for adding me to the group, and i look forword to Hangin' out with you all
