Which is more comfortable? Which holds more weight? I want to get one for my husband. He is quite heavyset and I don’t want it to break…
No AllyBill-
I mean a real Hammock- you know the kind you put in the back yard and you lay in it to sleep. Get your mind out of the gutter.
We have some neighbors whose back yard is kitty-corner to our own. Their back door is slightly more than 60 feet from our back porch, but when I smoke in the back yard, they make a tremendous and obnoxious show of being annoyed with me. They pretty much shout at each other so I am sure to hear, and they complain as if I were smoking a stogie in their kitchen. They slam windows and doors, but then step outside to complain loudly to one another. I once asked the neighbor next door to us if the smoke bothers them (their yard backs directly on the obnoxious neighbors), and they told me it dissipates so much by the time it reaches their back yard (which is closer than the other people’s back door) that they never even notice it.
Recently, the grumps got a hammock on a stand and placed it outside their back door on the little concrete patio. Several times recently, I have waited until one of them is comfortably settled in the hammock with a book and a drink, and then gone out and smoked, making sure my smoke drifts their way. Sometimes I have to move around a lot to find the right air current to carry the smoke to them. I quite enjoy doing this, though I don’t do it all the time.
Does my enjoyment of their annoyance make me a bit wicked?
Also, would it be better, perhaps, to go get the big shisha (water pipe) and set that up on the porch? There’s more smell, naturally, but it smells delightfully of apricots…
Thank you for your thoughts and comments.

This question is a bit different for me because
1. I’ve never been able to tan before
2. I have a family history of being EXTREMLY pale
3. I’m not interested in getting spray on tan or going to
a tanning salon at all if possible P.S.( I have a very sunny back yard with a hammock and I litteraly live two minutes from a beach)
4. I want to be safe and try not to get skin cancer
5. Thanx for reading!!!
I would like to build a pergola for hanging a hammock in the back yard. Can anybody tell me if 15ft is correct on how far apart the posts/beams should be to hang the hammock? It seems really wide to me.
I don’t have any trees in my back yard but want to have a hammock hanging. I am planning to insert two wooden poles vertically about 12 feet apart and suspend the hammock from these. I also plan to make them removable (i.e. have the concrete foundation with a circular metal tube through the middle in which the wooden poles can be inserted). How deep and wide should I pour the concrete?
