    Thank you very much.

    I just wanted to let everyone know how much I have enjoyed and appreciated this forum. A few years ago I got interested in hammocks and bought my first Hennessy. I never dreamed there was so many options involved in hanging. I then began to learn about our "cottage industry" options. I have bought items from Warbonnet, Stormcrow, Minibulldesign, Arrowhead Equipment and several others. I have ALWAYS been very happy with the service and products. I hope you all know how much I have enjoyed getting, trading, and using my gear. It is a fun hobby. It is nice to know I have options other than REI and big name stores. I love the hand made stuff. Waiting is tough but also part of the fun. Makers of my beloved gear, thank you for all you do. Keep up the great work.

    Also, have a great Thanksgiving.... and more important than anything, have a really great day

    Nice post, I too am thankful for the forum and the endless source of information it has been. I also have made some really good friends at hangs as a result. Now that is priceless. As the holiday approaches, a little thanks seems appropriate. Thanks for reminding me.

    Kuddos to Flair for this post.

    My hats off to those that provide us with such options to choose from. I am very thankful for my dealings with ALL of our Cottage Gurus. More specifically, thanks to Brandon for a GREAT hammock & tarp & UQ; thanks to Paul for his out-of-the-box thinking and providing me with those little knick-knack that are creative and ingenious; thanks to the Jacks for providing great items with quick service at great prices; thanks to StormCrow & Throwren for all of my downey goodness; thanks to Tinny for the most incredible little stove that puts my friends in awe!

    I feel like singing "Muskrat Love" now . . .
