    Thanks Rockdawg!
    I'll plan to bring some brats in case we run out of Gumbo & rice
    Of course they can be used for any other meal as well.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    Should we buy you a pony & have it shipped to you?
    That would be great, but how would you keep the meat from spoiling?

    I just spent the weekend in my hammock and did not need an underquilt. Next month in VA that won't be the case.

    I have started pulling together some things. I bought 5 lbs of andouille sausage for the Gumbo since I caught it on sale earlier this week.

    So excited about being there during the Autumnal Equinox!

    So, do we have several hammock types & different suspensions to hang up during the Saturday Hammock Demo at the festival?
    I can hang my DIY gathered end hammock using a spreader bar above the head.
    My suspension is webbing clipped to the tree by a dutch clip & adjustment is w/ ring buckles attached to the hammock by cord & larks head.

    I can put my tarp over it but my tarp isn't the prettiest It has extra seams that cause a lot of unnecessary questions
    But having a tarp for each hammock in the demo will be a most excellent idea. You never know when a rain cloud will roll in.

    We will bring to set up an ENO One link System and a Chrysalis for those who want to compare a bridge hammock to a gathered end hammock if you want. Well have them with us either way.

    I have an extra ENO Dry Fly if you want to hang it over your DIY.

    I'm bringing the following: WBBB 1.1 DL with OES SpinnUL tarp; HULBA (2Q/ZQ mod3 zipper)with OES SpinnUL tarp, and 1.1 DL Switchback (arriving today) with Warbonnet Superfly Camo tarp. Now I just have to make a couple more sets of "skins", buy some more stakes, and rig some guylines. Plus I'm making another IX weathershield for the WBBB.
