New pod this week

Hi Blue's Pod....so where in NC are you?  I am in the Hickory area.  

Know you will love it. Any campgrounds you recommend in your area?

Today we got the r-dome out and put up for the first time.  It took us 15 minutes to put it up and take pictures.  We did spray the track with silicone as recommended in the instructions.  We don't think it will be necessary to use the spray next time as our track is wider than the plastic part you slide through.  I was worried that our dome would come up short with the risers but that is not the case.  There is ample length on our dome even with the risers.  Here is a picture of the dome with the colors.  The top is grey and other parts are a matching green to the new pod colors.  The roll up panels are a pale yellow.  We did take a dremel tool to the edges of the track because they are sharp and were shaving a little on the plastic.  That fixed it.

Also the dome comes with a netting that slides into a track on the bottom of the pod.  I like it better than the snap type system that I heard were on other domes.   I modified our netting today.  The original netting goes over the tire but does not reach the ground having to go out over the tire (because there is no track inside the wheel well).  Husband marked where he wanted it cut.  Then I sewed a seam and some velcro on both halves.  Now our netting skirt goes together via velcro behind the wheel around the axle.  That allows our netting to go all the way to the ground

Hi Blue's pod. I thought I had posted a reply to your campground question, however I don't think it made it to you.
I really like Mountain Stream campground near Marion,NC. Small, beautiful and quiet. Ask for a site on the stream. Some of the sites even have a deck built out next to the water.
By the way, I think I need the two of you to come down the mountain and help me modify my pod!

Happy travels,
Mary
