    ===> Yeah, I have internal and external loops on the zippers of the hammock body, but this was the first time deploying the Spindrift Sock (as you know - YOU put it on for me!), and had not put anything on the sock zippers yet. Hit REI today, and picked-up some glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls, and will still have Glo-wire loops on them as well. When the new WBBB XLC arrives, it will also be outfitted with the zipper treatments.

    Knowledge is a cumulative thing.

    ===> FRED!! How ya doing buddy? We we thinking about you at the hang! Good to hear from you! Yes, you did get some reflective cord for zipper loops at the last hang we were at together. I just hadn't put any on the sock yet, and that, especially in the -5* cold turned out to be a mistake! The smallest preparation details matter.

    Hope to see you in the Spring at an upcoming hang! Stay well, stay in touch!

    I went to the Western Mass Council Scout Headquarters today and submitted the Raffle winnings. Thanks to everyone's participation, the vendors gracious donations (Dutchware, Diaz Knives, Whoopieslings, HammockGear, and everyone else) we raised $450.00 for the Boy Scouts of Western Mass. Thank you sincerely.

    ===> Awesome, Tim! Hopefully the money will help get more kids involved with the natural world, and help with the education of those who already are. Hammock Forum members, and our incredible cottage vendors, have become a real force for good across the country, if not the world. Proud to be involved!

    Hey Guys & Gals,

    I'm hoping to finish editing and post the video tomorrow (I had a couple other obligations for work and my condo association that I had to take care of first). I need the list of hangers for the closing credits. Here is the list I got from the sign-up sheet. Please get back to me ASAP with additional and/or deletions.

    Not sure that Heather and Jesse are included there. Also Max and Eve (Marshall's son and his gf) and Jay and Leticia (who didn't get named). And Liz's friend, Parker. (I don't know everyone's forum names so if they are there, I'm sorry!)
