Hi Ho ! A Podder close by. We are about 20 east of Duluth in NW Wis. 2 years into this wonderful adventure. We were up at Itasca State Park on Memorial Day week. Enjoy your trip to Ely. |

Made it to fall lake as planned. Stayed 7 days. Good weather except one downpour. Mud built-up on rubber mats of rdome. Pain in the ? To clean when packing up. Met our friends from Canada and a good time was had by all. We boated on numeruos days (them in kayaks; us in row boat.we moved to the north shore of lake superior for 2 days and to the upper peninsula of Michigan for4 days.(picture rock,etc visited and spent alot of time at seney wildlife refuge birdwatching. Camping on the fox river in seney city.headed south in mi. And staying at grayling military cg with free WiFi.will head to Ohio in am for visit with family and friends.
Have seen six other rpods on the road headed other way.the last one was headed north on I-75 On the mackinah bridge. That's a total of 8 on this trip so far. Unable to post pics to this forum. Have no trouble on others. Have given up on pics. |

I'm assuming you came around to the South Shore of Lake Superior? If so you missed us by a mile, literally. We're a mile off the main drag from MN to MI. I've spotted a half dozen plus Pods passing through in the last couple weeks. Going up and down Hwy 2 we see quite a lot of cross country traffic. We were going to wander over to the UP this fall but a wedding obligation is putting a damper on that....... Good to hear you had a good time. |

Made it to Ohio and visited family & friends. Had a good time.headed home to Fla. Stopped in Asheville, NC on way home. On the way home, in south Carolina, had a blowout on drivers side of pod. Not sure why , but it took the fender off as well. Air pressure was checked but did hit a small piece of tire debris (unable to avoid it ) about 15 minutes before. It was a very small piece and didn't think that much about it. Changed tire without getting mashed by trucks or other traffic. Otherwise, trip was great. Now looking for replacement fender .
