    How many hammocks does a person need

    Is this like the one who dies with the most hammock stuff wins. I think I need help,IMG_2450.jpgIMG_2451.jpgIMG_2452.jpgIMG_2453.jpg I can not stop making hammocks, tarps and stuff. I have lost track of how many I have. Just finished this one in spectra yellow Robic XL 10 1/2 feet with whoopies and dutch hooks. I know, I know I got a little carried away with the strap stitching. My goal is to finish a sewing project without on goof up. I nearly made it with this one, last end channel I sewed the seam to part of the hammock. How come my picture come out sideways. I looked at them with several viewers and orientation was correct, but when I up load they are rotated..

    Oldgringo said it best with this classic quote from a number of years ago.

    I thought not.

    At least one for every season to include mud season and one more because your testing it out. Never return them because you never know when a situation could arise when you need it. Invite all your friends over and tell the wife you don't want to leave anyone out or they'll feel sad. That's good for two or three. My first excuse was but your brother wants to come along. That got me my second rig. He go's with us once a year!!!
    If I had 42 hammocks I'd open a hammock hostel here in Vt. Come hang for a night and offer all you could eat pancakes for breakfast with real Vermont maple syrup. I have now officially gone over the edge because that sounds like a good idea!!!!! Hammock justification is happy disease.

    I like your thinking. That reminds me, it's been a while since I've bought a hammock.

    My answer is also "just one more".
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you
