Newbies from West Michigan

Welcome to the Pod-world. We moved from the ground t a real bed for the same reasons. Combined with our instinct for 'nesting', the R-Pod fits our requirements just right. It works in all weather and keeps everything in one place and ready to go camping. Enjoy once the weather becomes camping suitable!!!

Greetings! We would like to introduce ourselves as we are "newbies" to both this forum and to trailer camping.  My name is Loretta and my husband is Greg. We also have a boxer named Winston who is near and dear to our hearts.  We recently purchased a new 2012 r-pod model #177.  Our dealer is keeping it in storage for us until we can take pick it up when the weather warms.   In the past, we have tent camped, however, due to a bad back and aging joints,  our days of climbing up and down off an air mattress have come to an end.  We began looking at small trailers that might suit our needs and stumbled upon the r-pod. (what a cute little guy!).  We're really looking forward to getting out there.  We live in Muskegon, MI which is located on the shoreline of Lake Michigan.  Our home is about 5 miles from the lake, so I think our first outing will be to the state park campground there (to break in both us and the "sweetie pod").  We have been haunting the forum for the last few weeks picking up tips. (you folks certainly do know your stuff!)  Now that we are forum members, I am sure that we will have lots of questions for you as well.  Looking forward to getting to know you all and becoming a "podder"  Thanks much!
