    Tampa Bay Hanger

    Hello all,
    I have been lurking and reading for some time. I live on Tampa Bay and would like to meet some "hangers" locally to bounce ideas off of. I am a college professor and like to fabricate gear on a lathe and milling machine. I enjoy kayak camping in Cockroach Bay. Having broken several vertebrae in my lower spine, hammock camping has given me a new lease on my camping life!

    Cheers,

    Doc

    Welcome to the forum Doc B. I am not quite in Tampa, but I do live in Florida, and I will be at the First Annual Florida Hang in January:

    http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=23870

    You should definitely come, if you have the chance, for the same reason I will be going... To meet other Florida Hangers, and just other Hangers in general.
