Are any of you Florida hammockers going to the Florida Gathering in November? (See gatherings section)
I would love to see some of yall's get ups. We are having a show and tell, swap, trade, buy, sell at this gathering and I, being new into hanging, would like to see some other ideas.
Anyone going to it?

I'll be there. But have pretty much kept my tried and true HH Asym. The only modification I would like to do is the straps but doubt I will have time before the get together. Sue
I'm thinking about coming up Saturday if I can get away.
I'd really like to meet some in state people.
If I bring my own food, is there any problem in just showing up??

Both the ENOs are otherwise busy in Iraq right now. But, I will be bringing a Hennessy Explorer, Warbonnet ElDorado (if it gets back from repairs in time), a Trek Light Double, and a Traveller UL. The Trek Light is the exact same thing as the ENOs so if you like it, you'll like the ENOs; same prices too.
I was lucky enough to do some hiking in Ocala NF.this year.The trail was nicer than I thought.
