Glad you stopped in Dave.  Nice to meet you and your family.  Looking forward to hooking up at a camp site sometime.  Maybe we can get Kelli M. from Kingston to join us at Murphy's point or Charleston lake and have a mini rally ourselves.  We met Kelli at Murphy's point  this year.  As always  RPOD owners are super people to meet.    Enjoy your new pod and happy travels.

Survived and enjoyed our first weekend away to Voyageur Provincial Park, Ontario in our new 2014 R-Pod 178.
 
The only modification we made before we left was to put an Ikea Lycksele Havet mattress on top of the queen bed.  (Another poster suggested replacing the queen mattress with a Lycksele Lovas mattress but it didn't suit us).
 
A highlight of the weekend was to drop in to see ron_whitt in Chesterville on the way home.  (I'm on the left in front of our 178 with Lily, our golden retriever.  Ron is on the right with his 177.)
 
Many thanks for the hospitality, Ron.  See you at Murphys Point Provincial Park next year!

Welcome to the Forum.  We live in Canton, NY about 50 miles south of Ottawa.  There are some great campsites along the St.Lawrence River.  Enjoy your new Rpod 178 !

I think the color/accent scheme is great, similar to the 2013 scheme......but even better!

Also not a fan of the Black Accent pieces.

Looks good.  I like this color scheme, although I'm not thrilled that the accent color is black, especially the stuff on the roof.  RVs use white roofs for a reason.

Yippee!  Picked up our 178 today.
 
Would love to include a photo with my online signature but I am not sure how to do that.  Could someone please help.  And remind me how to re-size the photo so that it fits.
 
Many thanks,

Hello ron_whitt,
 
Sorry that we won't be at Murphys Point this weekend.  It is actually our favourite Provincial Park.  Our preferred site was 147 in Fallows but it doesn't allow travel trailers.  We typically went on the long weekend before school and took in the Perth Fair and picked up some local corn to boil.
 
We have booked Murphys Point for mid-September and will be in 61 in Hoggs Bay.
 
We also went back to Charleston Lake last year and discovered that they have an area away from the beach where dogs are allowed to swim off leash.  Needless to say we are heading back there at the end of August.
 
Coupled with Bonnechere at the beginning of August and Grundy Lake near Sudbury for the Thanksgiving Weekend we don't have many weekends left ;-)
 
If this schedule doesn't give the R-Pod a work-out, I don't know what will.
 
BTW, I hear that there was a mini-convention of R-Pods last year at Murphy's Point.  Sounds like a plan.  Maybe there are more of us in Ontario than I thought.  (Yes, we are getting ours from Travel-Mor).
 
Cheers,
 
David
