I may have just converted 2 to "Our cult".
Yesterday some friends from church told me they were selling all of their hiking gear. Both are AVID backpackers, & I could tell this was a blow to them, the wife said she has a bad ACL (R leg) & "several" injured vertibrae, the walking part is'nt that bad if she takes it easy, but sleeping on the ground, no matter how much padding she uses is 'IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!!" so naturally, I "preached the gospel" of hanging. Their response was, not so impressive, or so I thought.
I just came in from showing him my set up, (he 'HAD to see" my set up) his response was: "Wow, that's light! Wow, that sets up fast!! WOW! IS THAT EVER COMFORTABLE!! OH WOW!!!!!!" I then showed him: the ease of setting up the tarp, the hammock sock, the under & over quilts & the fact that it doubles as a chair. He said another problem with the wifes back is "Nowhere to sit".
I suspect that their hiking gear is no longer for sale.
I am so bad.
