    Talking Hello from Bay Area California

    Hello all.
    Recently purchased a Grand Truck Double Hammock from "TheClymb.com".
    Never had a hammock before, let alone slept in one.
    From watching YouTube I stumbled onto your site and subsequently the "TurtleDog" hammock stand.
    I built my own yesterday(Saturday), so I was able to finally sleep in a hammock over night in my living room. I LOVED IT!
    Now I'm looking at sleeping overnight in my backyard and see how it I would like that.
    I see this forum tons of information to scan through. I guess I'm going to be busy reading for awhile.
