    Hello from central NY (Rochester area)

    Hello all,

    I have been camping most of my life (Boy Scouts and then went to school in Colorado Springs). We moved to NYS in 2005 and to Rochester in 2011. Since then I have been spending more time up in the Adirondacks area and started my 46'er quest this summer.

    Caught the hammock bug this May on a group trip and got to check out a WB bridge hammock. Since then been doing lots of research, comparisons, etc. While I love DIY, I don't have a lot of time with two younger kids (5 & 7), FT job and multiple hobbies. I finally settled on a Clark NX-250 which I expect to have by the end of next week.

    Later,
    -Rich

    Welcome to the forums from Indiana!
    I got in a fight one time with a really big guy, and he said, "I'm going to mop the floor with your face." I said, "You'll be sorry." He said, "Oh, yeah? Why?" I said, "Well, you won't be able to get into the corners very well."

    Perhaps it is about time we did a Rochester group hang.
