    I had ordered a Desert Rat and a Hex Fly from Hennessy last Thurs and it got all the way down here to Texas today,,,,, a day early......

    As ya would know it, I took it into the file room here at the office and hung it from the file cabinets......

    Congrats on the new hammock, Randy. Post pictures if you can. I'm interested in seeing the color.

    The only problem with hammocks is that one is just never enough. It's a sickness!

    I have been skipping my kayaking therapy classes to go to hammock group therapy,,, I just can't win....

    If I can get home before dark 30 today I will post some pics,,,, the tan is a tad darker than what appears on Hennessy's web site,,,, I like it.....

    The hex fly is green and will work /match my ENO, the Expidition, the M1966 and also the Desert Rat.......and my kayak and the canoe and the other canoe.... dangggggggg.

    I even stopped and looked at sewing machines,,,,the other day,,,,, this aint good.....or is it.............yeppers, it's good.....

    Well, I got home with a few minutes of daylight left and had time to hang it up down by the barn. I felt like a kid with another new toy. .... I like it.

    It was getting to dark to get pictures of the hex fly but that thing is cool.

    Everything is green right now, but after the first frost or two, it will blend in just fine.





    I know what I am doing this weekend.......

    Randy,

    Is it just the perspective of the pictures or is that asym tarp larger than normal? It looks like a monster compared to my asym tarp that came with my Exped.

    This came off of Hennessy's sale that was posted on here. For a package deal, including the snake skins, I am happy.
