I was glad to read everyone's posts regarding the Holiday weekend.  It was good to hear the stories of the first timers and, also, the first time this year persons.  Glad everyone had a good time.  Smile

Great Pics, When we lived in Duluth, GA we always enjoyed our ventures into the N. GA SC & Western NC.  Kind of miss it at times.

Happy Podding

Iamsmonk,
 
The pod should look sharp -- YOU designed the vinyl lettering! Tongue And I thank you very much for it.  (If you ever do lettering for another one like mine, I suggest that the leaf the frog sits on be a lighter green, so the frog sihouette shows up better.  I know it was my choice but after seeing it on the pod in the daylight, that's what I think.  But you did exactly what I asked for and I'll be the first one to tell anyone that your design, lettering, and service was first class! -- THANKS!)
 
First thing my son-in-law said when he saw the lettering for "The Hodge PODge"  was "We need to name our popup!"

It looks like the grandsons had a blast, and the park is very pretty.

Not S'mores, but they did roast marshmallows - at least I remembered that much.  But darn, if that wasn't the first thing they asked me when they got there was, "Nana, did you bring the stuff to make S'mores?"  Well, I did remember ALMOST everything.
 
The Pod mechanics worked great, no problems at all.  And a whole lot easier to hook up and tow for me than a fifth wheel, and setting up camp was so much easier than setting up a popup camper.  So I was pleased on all counts.

Snowbound, I couldn't stand it when they went home!  For sure, the trip wasn't as much fun without the boys.
