    Hey Y'all

    Hey Y'all!

    I've been a long time lurker and am finally introducing myself. I'm originally from Augusta, GA but currently living in Cincinnati, OH for college. Got myself a WB Blackbird earlier this year and absolutely love it. I typically did day-trips before because sleeping on the ground was so painful for me that it pretty much ruined my trips. Now I do overnighters with no regret!

    All the info on the site has been very helpful so far, thanks all!

    Welcome gaineskj!
    I found this forum and hammocks a little over a year ago and it's been my best year out in the woods ever! Good people here on this forum, wherever they came from

    Some of my freight hopping adventures on film over at my YouTube Channel... Oh and there is other stuff there as well!
