    A retro sleep, not that bad....

    I live in three places, constantly and randomly hopping back and forth between them.
    My least used abode has until recently been without hammockability inside until I hauled down a spare hammock stand.
    It's the walmart type and wont work easily with the Warbonnet line of hammocks and some others; so while I'm waiting on good news from TQ and a possible hammock stand extension that would allow Warbonnet use I've gone retro and strung up an HH Backpacker asym.
    I haven't slept in an HH in a long time and reflected on the sheer number of times I'd used it...it was my first Backpacker asym and it also brought back memories to the tabs I had sewn on to hold a home made UQ. Back then there were no commercially available (but the Jacks came to our rescue not that long after).
    Honestly the HH is far better than a bed but for me not even close to the Blackbird. Still a bunch of good memories of my first hangs long ago.

    2 homes 1 by choice, the other abode is an RV 1 minute from the hospital I work at, think Trapper John scenario and nothing big or fancy.

    Campers make cozy little homes too . I just went to the welding shop on Friday and had extensions made for one of my stands. I tried one of my hh's out in it first (just in case of stand failure) and was reminded how many good nights sleep I had spent in it. I'm a little heavy for the ul bp right now though
