    Lots...see build
    Definitely! I've got an Amazonas Moskito Hammock that is really nice and lightweight and includes a bug net but it's not meant for much weight so I can't sit in it with anyone if mine's the only one in the group. There have been a number of times when I wished I had a double.
    Definitely look into the Eno slap straps or something similar. They're just straps with many extra loops to hook into so it's super easy and quick to setup. One of my friends and I both set up hammocks one trip and she spent a good 30 min trying to get the ropes tied right while I had mine up and was relaxing in it in 5 minutes or less.
    The first few times I camped with my hammock I didn't use my sleeping pad in it and was extremely uncomfortably cold. Definitely worth it to use the pad in the hammock if it's going to be at all chilly at night!

    backpacking and hiking for pleasure holds little interest for me...but I do love being out in the woods and away from civilization

    I've got a couple older North Face tents that work out great for me since I don't have to pack them in and out, but I love keeping as much light as possible when packing

    I hear ya on Bibler amazing stuff.
    The last time we were at BB we took three days and made it all the way to the ocean but the bus back to town was 6 hours away so we flagged down this truck that was loading horses we had passed earlier to get some info. He happened to be a judge up there with his wife and daughter who gave us a ride all the way back to the truck. Amazing people to say the least.

    I only camp out in my truck when it monsoons and my tent floods regardless of location...hasn't happened in many years

    Yes. I'm excited about the prospect. I'm lucky in that I live on a 60 acre lake with some undeveloped woods on 1 side so I can "practice" before setting out on a trip
