    New To Forum From Ma.

    Just joined the forum and looking forward to getting a lot of info on hammock camping. We have done the popup thing for a long time and want to try something new. Can't afford a motorhome or trailer. We have a tent ,however at 60 years old I'm not a big fan of sleeping on the ground although my wife has no problem with it.
    I hope to get some help in choosing my first hammock. Being 6'3"
    and +- 270 lbs I want to make sure I get the right setup
    Look forward to getting started

    Welcome from Philly.
    When I was a kid the only time we were in the house was to eat and sleep.

    Welcome to the forums from Mass. Keep an eye out for anything NEHHA related. North East Hammock Hanger's Association. We have a group hang coming up in April close to you in Ashby, Ma. The listing is in the Northeast Trip Planning section.

    Welcome from your neighbor to the north. Sounds like a lot of good hangs in our general area, perhaps we will meet up someday soon.
