    Thumbs up A visit to JRB...Thanks!!

    Just wanted to say thanks to the Jack's (Pan & Smee) for a great visit to their shop and for the grand tour of your operation. These guys have an A1 class setup going on here and they are committed to providing an excellent product. They are also have a great wealth of information to share, they took the time to answer all of the girlfriends and my questions regarding hammocking...very very cool While there I picked up a set of hammock straps with triglides to use on my ENO doublenest..going try those this weekend. Also got me one of their beanies with the JRB logo on it Again thanks.....Now I got to save some XTRA MOOLA for a couple of quilts..

    Gracadruid,

    Glad that you and your gal enjoyed the visit...Come a little earlier next time and we will set some hammocks up and let you all check out a variety of them.

    Heck, since we are developing a hammock group here on the peninsula perhaps a saturday open house with several hammock stands will let all do some show and tell... Could be fun...First half of March is tied up, but maybe towards the end of the month or some time in April.

    Thoughts?

    I won't be back in town until early May, but a Peninsula Hangers group would be an excellent idea. I use my JRB Shenandoah as my summer TQ and could not be happier.
    Not the guy to ask for Directions.

    Hey Pan,

    I know we would be up for an open house, sounds like a great idea. I am sure that there are others on here who would like it. Sometime in April sounds good.
