Welcome to Podding.  Beautiful picture of New Mexico. We may venture that way next year. Hope you find fellow podders

I was hoping to, but the dogs were so loud I couldn't get another question in!

HI everyone,
 
We took out our little pod this weekend to celebrate the hot weather, and were shocked that we met another podder at our campground (we went to Percha Dam in southern NM)! They said they just got their pod in Salt Lake City (but they live in New Mexico). I tried to find out more from them but our dogs were barking so loud I barely heard anything!
 
Anyway, we've ordered two 18" high pens to set up outside for the doggies to play in, but until we got it, we just went ahead and brought one of our tall pens with us. It allowed them to go in and out as they liked, while I hung out with them in the pen. That's my husband outside the pen (there wasn't room for him and me both in it).
 
Also, to the front of the pod, you can see that we got this nifty trash/recycling thing from Camping World. It's collapsable and we store it under the seat inside, and when we're set up, we hook it up outside, to the rpod, with the strap that holds the dinette table in place while we're driving. that way we can keep our trash & recycling outside, and since we strap it to the pod, it won't blow away in the New Mexico wind. We also keep an ice chest outside for ice, cokes, and beer, so that those items don't take up space in the little fridge inside.

It looks like snow but it is sand--white sand!

Welcome to the forum - that snow looks good next to 98 degrees in New Jersey this afternoon.

Thanks for the nice welcome!  It sounds like the dome is a real plus for you and your doggies. I would sure love it if there was another podder in New Mexico and we could see one at work close up!
