Anybody else get funny looks for having a hammock

My wife thinks I'm nuts too.... However when the warm weather comes back I bet she converts and becomes a true believer!

I cut the fabric for my wife's hammock -- she is a high school teacher -- and said, "This one's going to be yours. It's in your school color!" She replied, deadly serious, "What the (BLEEP) am I gonna do with that?"

I shook my head and thought pleasant thoughts as I walked away. I got her to go canoeing. I got her to go kayaking. I got her to sleep outdoors several nights a year in a tent. I think I have finally exhausted her patience.

I set up my ENO DN on the truck hoist at work one day at work during lunch. One of the guys asked me to bring the hammock back so he could try it.

Funny looks?? Oh yea and I love every minute of it. In a few more years, everyone will be in a hammock, so I'm enjoying the uniqueness now while it lasts.

I tinker with my setup in the basement. My parents came up to visit a couple of months ago, so it gave me a "reason" to sleep in it. My wife just couldn't understand why I would want to sleep in my hammock instead of the SOFA BED!!! Man...what was I thinking passing up that luxurious bed...

I still go down there about once a week and nap...
