Allow me to elaborate. I used to be a serious hammock camper. I seriously loved swinging in the breeze. First started with a little net hammock while I was stationed in Alaska back in the 80's and moved on to some SERIOUS rigs which could withstand temps down to below zero...though not "Alaska cold!"
Then fate/old army injuries stepped in and a combination of medical conditions have made it so that hammock camping is...just...not feasible anymore. I have to haul a little house around with me to "go camping" now-a-days."
However a hammock camping group, which I founded, is still going strong and they regularly do "service hangs" for the state parks here in Virginia. They get to camp for free and, in return, they spend a saturday doing a service project for the state park. Natural Bridge, one of America's natural wonders, has recently been acquired by Va State Parks and they are going to put in a campground, where none currently exists. They contacted the hammock group for manpower help on this, they now have a bit of a reputation for doing these things. For he second time running, since I have had to bow out of hammock camping, the group agreed to do the project only if the park would make an allowance for a camper to tag along. So, My wife and I will be "boondocking," in the woods near Natural Bridge.
I am somewhat concerned since the last time some of the guys were trying to figure out how to sling my camper between two trees....
Anywho, my traditional campfire smoke is Dunhill Nightcap. I love to crack a tin and sit by the fire at night, puffing it slowly in a CW. Now I dunno, I have a few tins left but there aren't anymore.....hmmmm....should I our shouldn't I?
