    Hi from Ohio

    Hey everybody, I'm not really new here, but some of you may know me as the Mrs. of CB200T. I've finally decided to get my own set up (and account) and stop trolling using the hubby's. I tried out hammocking to little success last year with a WBBB that I was too short to be comfortable in, gave up and went back to ground with a Tarp Tent Stratospire. In the meanwhile I still ended up on the forums searching out plans for my first DIY TQ which turned out pretty good for a first attempt. I also found that I loved CB's DIY m90 hammock and promptly stole it from him and am now in the process of putting together plans for a DIY tarp and UQ. Thanks to everyone for the great advice so far. This site really is an awesome community!

    Welcome from another "Mrs" and fellow Ohioan. My hubby is the forum lurker in our marriage.

    It's not procrastinating, its proactively delaying the implementation of the energy-intensive phase of the project until the enthusiasm factor is at its maximum effectiveness.

    Thanks for all of the warm welcomes! I'll be back with some DIY gear updates after the holidays. I'm glad to find a place that understands just how exciting a box full of 1.1 and goosedown (and some dutchware) can be. Merry Christmas to me. Now I just need to get sewing!
