I worked late today and got out of work about the same time as Eric. So I met him at Checkers and we did a little bit of shopping (yesterday was bare necessities because the Eudora grocery store is so much more expensive). Then we drove out to North Lawrence to pick up our hammock stand from UPS. They tried delivering it today, but we were both at work.
After a stop to pick up my car and a home visit to one of my students, we were home and set up the ENORMOUS hammock stand. It is 15 feet long and definitely does NOT fit on our porch. We had it on the porch for 30 minutes or so before bringing it inside - it stretches from the far end of the porch to beyond our front door - oops! Then we set it up in the office, where it stretches from the far corner of the room INTO our closet. For now it will live there, I can play Dr. Mario on the Wii while swinging in the room filling hammock!
Perfect!
It takes up all of the porch...and then some! But it's nice to lay in!
She doesn't appear amused, but Mystic really liked laying with Eric.
It has since been adjusted so I can see the TV without practically falling out.
Addy is also very interested in the hammock, though it took her many tries to gain the courage to jump on.
Panoramic view of it in our office, haha!
