We usually avoid the holiday weekends too, but within two weeks of this summer's vacation we were feeling the itch so we booked a trip for this coming weekend.  Hickory Run state park in PA, something new for us.  One advantage of the pod is you can block out the drunk rowdy holiday weekend crowd.  That was a problem in our popup.

Annual camp out with a bunch of family members and friends on Lake Huron. I think there's 17 campers this year.

We like to avoid the holiday crowds too -- and Labor Day weekend will be among the worst in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, but that's where we're headed anyway.  It's a free 3-day weekend and I'm going to make 9 days out of it. 

  We're still fairly new to pod camping, having always tent camped before.  We have reservations for 4 nights in the GSMNP, and we'll probably stay there the whole time.  It's really our favorite place to go.  But with the wheels under our shelter, and no worries about packing up wet, we might head out to other venues while we're gone this time.

Well we don't normally go poddin on long holiday weekends. but, I had some minor surgery on my right foot and have not been able to be very active. I have had to wear one of those post surgery boots on my right foot, this means , no camping, no fishing, no going down into the woods etc. Stitches come out Tuesday and we are heading to Hoosier National Forest, our close to home get away. don't try to stop me. We have reservations. If I don't get out of this house and do something fun somebody is going to pay. (probably me) We are gone for a two nighter. Where are you going ?????
