    The test in the rain stayed Mainly on the Plane

    My first test of my new hammock and rain tarp. My wife thinks I have officially had my cheese slide off my cracker.

    Sunday last I knew it was going to rain and as I 've not had a chance to test out my HH with the Hex tarp, I thought...Giddy Up!

    Set up Saturday afternoon, hung for a bit and then waited for the "storm" to come. Sunday morning about 10:30 a.m. CST sugarbooger and her sister start to comment on the coming "storm". I go to my hammock, Kindle in hand, and settle in for "the storm". About thirty minutes later the bottom comes out of the heavens and it's looking like the apocolypse. The lightning and thunder were enough to make ME think my cheese had slid off my cracker.

    In about 4+ hours we get almost 3 inches...most of it sideways. Me? Safe, snug and warm in my hammock. Dry as a bone. The best part was watching my wife, or my sister-in-law or one of my kids come to the door every 10 minutes, look out, shake their head and walk away.

    Worth the price of admission everytime.
