Several years ago we received a hammock and the pieces to build a hammock stand. I have read bedtime stories to the kids in that hammock, napped in it, read books there, and soaked in the sights and sounds of the forest that is our back yard. Over time, the hammock had to be replaced. And last summer we discovered that the cedar beams used to make the stand were drying out and starting g to split.
With a new hammock season upon us, I wanted to create as place where the hammock could hang again so that we might enjoy some more naps, novels, snuggles, and nature. I found the perfect place just off the the area where our deck will someday go. There are two hefty trees spaced perfectly apart.
Patrick helped by hauling the cut branches, vines, and forest debris to the back edge of our property where such yard waste foes to decay. And then he helped me hange the hammock.
