    Greetings from south Mississippi

    I would like to say hello to all and introduce myself. My name is Alonzo. I am new to hammock camping. I received my byer's moskito hammock from Amazon dot com yesterday and decided to try it out this afternoon. I hung it, and immediately felt a sense of calm that fell over me. I rushed inside to grab my 19 month old daughter to see how she would like it. We laid there for ten seconds and she was snoring! (of course, the Internet allows a slight degree of embellishment...it was more like twenty seconds) I brought her back inside after a short slumber, and didn't notice usual neck pain I have after a nap. Mind you, after years of bjj and several MMA fights, the slightest pressure on the back of my head produces noticeable neck pain. I felt nothing. I'm totally sold!

    Well, thank you all for reading, and I look forward to meeting you on the boards and on the trails!

    Thanks everyone! bdbart, I'm up for it, as soon as the weather cools off by about fifty degrees! It's been hotter than Forrest Whittaker's neck-crease outside! Where do you usually "hang out" at?
