Like peanut butter and chocolate, hammocks and the Outer Banks seem to be a natural fit. So, from the OBX to you and yours, happy National Hammock Day!
When: Always on July 22nd.
Summer is in full swing. It’s time to slow down and to relax. During the dog days of summer, there is no better place to slow down and relax, than on a hammock….is there ever a bad time to enjoy a hammock?
Hammock Day is appropriately celebrated right in the middle of the dog days of summer – July 3 though August 11th.
Hammock Day exists to enjoy summer as it should be enjoyed. People celebrate Hammock Day by spending as much time relaxing on it as possible. Getting out of your hammock to get a snack, or your favorite summer beverage is okay. But, it is not a day for work. Cutting the lawn is forbidden on this day. So put down the weed-eater and hop in the hammock.
The roots of Hammock Day and Hammock Day history is largely unknown. Maybe the originator was too busy napping on their hammock!?!

Whoa, cool, I didn’t even know about this day. I like your pictures–really neat site.
Would love to hear what you think of the Hammock Company I just wrote up.
