Between weather, work travel and other family comments I'm locked in for this Friday night. If anyone is interested in joining I'll be leaving the cities sometime between 5:30 and 6:30 pm.

Thanks for a fun night out John. It was interesting to see your hammock setup. I learned a few things last night I will share.
1. If you plan on bringing a Z fold mattress then one should put it in a pack and not leave it in the car.
2. Snow can hide precious bungee cords for ones sled put them in a pocket or bag.
3. A canteen and an insulated Thermos come in handy for all the water a person needs in a winter setting.
4. Bring a larger dinner so I don't have to snack so much.
5. My Feathered Friends slippers worked great as an easy pull on shoe for a trip to the bathroom at night.

One month down, 11 to go.

Yes, but I will probably be there early. I'll send you an email.
