    Introduction

    I finally joined after lurking for sometime. My son and I are headed back to the Allagash for our annual camping/canoeing adventure. My son has gotten too big for both of us to coexist in our two man tent, which has served us well for our last four trips. So...this year we hang. We setup and tried a HH Expedition, which we have been trading off sleeping in to ensure we can sleep comfortably. My son sleeps just fine. Unfortunately, I'm a belly sleeper and had a harder time getting to sleep and staying asleep. So I just pulled the trigger on a JRB BMBH. Fingers crossed, that it with my Exped pad will do the trick. Anyways...short story made long, here I am.

    Welcome from Florida.
    I think you made a wise choice with the bridge, being a stomach sleeper.

    Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
    The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy,
    while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." — John Muir

    Welcome from MI. You're going to like that hammock when it arrives. My friend has the JRB bridge and it sure is cozy.
