    It was another great time, Thanks to all who came, and all who helped out.

    And a big thank you to the vendors who donated items, and all of the individuals who donated also.

    What a terrific weekend! Nice chance to connect with familiar faces and make new friends. The weather and the food was great, and it's already on my calendar for next year. Simply a wonderfully amazing group of folks to be associated with.
    I've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, make sure I stay here.


    When I see lovers' names carved into a tree, I don't think it's cute. I think it's strange how so many people take knives on a date.

    Here are the few pics I took this weekend. Thanks to everybody who came out, donated, cooked food, helped out cleaning/prepping and everything else. I can't wait to hand over that generous donation to the NCT! And thanks to Paul and Missy for taking the reins on organizing this awesome event!

    2015 Michigan Fall Hang & Chili Festival

    Had an amazing time again this year! It was great to see familiar faces, and to meet new folks
    Huge thank you to everyone that did the cooking and organizing for the event, I don't think anyone had a chance to even think about being hungry!
    Another big thank you to boulderv7 for the loaner underquilt for my friend that was hammocking for the very first time, I think he might be hooked now.

    Some photos:

    Thanks to everyone who helped with this hang. It was AWESOME! I wished I hadn't had to leave early, especially when I looked in my mirror and saw that FANTASTIC sunset. It was nice meeting and chatting with everyone and finally putting a few faces to names. Thanks Todd, for letting me crowd into your space.
    I like rocks. They're very good at being what they are, and pretty darn handy in a dust up.

    Looks like a good time, good weather, and a great variety of gear to check out.

    One of these years I need to take a month or two off in the fall and go on a tour.

    Nice video Gallo. Way to capture it all. I need to take more photos
    Get lost in the woods and find yourself again. A vacation,to me, is working with your hands and surviving because of the fruits of your labor. In the business world I teach;in the natural world I learn.
