If I'm not looking to put up the screen room on the front of the pod, where or how could I hang decorative lights on the outside. Are there clips that fit in the screen room track?

The stuff sewn to the rDome that slides in the track is called "awning rope" and can be bought here:
 
 
Just a suggestion.

You might try suction cups, some people have used them instead of installing the snaps on the side of the R-dome.  I think one side of a laundry clip would fit inside the track, that might secure it as long as the other side of the clip can hold onto something.

I simply attached our airstream lights to our dome with clothespins. Simple, cheap and effective.

Where'd you get that cool rpod you have hanging under the dome? That's really cool!

Phil, at the end of the ERU a couple that were tent Camping gave the this Shepards Hook,  they found it in the Tent area and couldn't take it back with them.  Figured I was ment to have it for my birdhouse.  Picture isn't very good, but there is a butterfly on the hook.

I hang a butterfly wind chime where Phil hangs his birdhouse.  Didn't have camera a ERU but will take pictures next week.

PHIL H: Are you going to be making the r.pod bird houses to sell or do we have to attend a rally to aquire one?
I collect "trailer" bird houses, they hang on the outside of my log house. Having the Escape Pod having its OWN bird house would be WOW

OH forgot. Thank you for idea of using the clothespins to put the lights up. Have not decided on an awing as of yet and have been using my lights inside the Pod.
