Just Hanging Around

Some of my fondest memories of childhood are those of backyard camp outs. I was a lucky girl in that I did most of my camping in a jungle hammock.  The hammock I'm talking about is probably a lot different than what just came to your mind. You see, my dad is the creator of the Clark Jungle Hammock.

From experience, I'll tell you that there is nothing better than a night's sleep in a Clark hammock.  The night breeze slowly rocking you to sleep, the comfort of being off of the ground...seriously, there's nothing better. They absolutely rock on backpacking trips. If you want to experience what true jealously is, bring one of these on a camp out with friends who are sleeping in tents on the ground. The next morning, they will complain loudly about sleeping on a rock all night and will secretly hate you for being well rested.

Last week, I had a fun time taking my kids to visit the Clark Jungle Hammock show room.  We got to hang out in the newest model (because we're cool like that) and visit with Grandpa.  I love being able to share one of my favorite things with my kids.

There's a little person sleeping in this one...
I'm pretty proud that this is my dad.
It's a perfect time to be thinking about a camping trip right now.  I suggest ditching the tent and getting a Clark Jungle Hammock.  If this seems like a shameless plug...it is. :)

Have a Happy Day!
