   Welcome,    My wife and I just picked up our 179 last February.  Just got back from our maiden voyage on Saturday. Two weeks to southern Florida and back to Pa. 3,500mi and the camper worked beautifully we couldn't be happier with it. 
I have been to the Canadian rockys before they are beautiful.  Haven't been to Glacier yet but headed out West next Sept.  and it is on our short list.

	Quick shout out to Boudens: I grew up in Calgary. Graduated Central Memorial High School, lived in Lakeview Village; played as a kid along the shores of Glenmore Reservoir, hiked at Weasel Head. Skied Banff, Norquay, and at Paskapoo before the big '88 transformation. Worked at the Stampede in my youth. Will always love Calgary. (Oh Canada - I miss you). Pierre then, Justin now. Full circle, eh? Glad you're towing a Pod along the Trans-Canada. Keep it safe out there this summer !

	Congratulations on your new 179. We really like ours and find it much more comfortable than our tent trailer. One of us is currently retired and I'm still working on a second a career but seeing all the retired comments here - not to mention the ones I get from my Roommate for Life- I'm thinking mine will be in the not too distant future. This year we're planning a trip to a FROG event in Kingston Ont. so really looking forward to that. Safe travels.

	Congratulations and welcome! The rear kitchen is what sold us on the 179. We have enjoyed ours. The big trip I want to make is to Yellowstone in 2018. This year has other travel planned.

	Joe and Eileen, Welcome to the group!! My wife and I bought a 2016 179 last fall, and love it. We also had a Northstar pickup camper, and used it so much, I'm sure it cost me less than a dollar/day to own it. We had been without a camper until we purchased the 179. Sounds like you have lots of great trips lined up. Ours will also see plenty of use this summer, leaving for AR soon and out west this summer. By the way, we are in WI also, near Wautoma.
