    Something in the family Vitaceae (grapes, etc). Possibly a species of Cissus.

    Thank you, I have been researching both and they are so close...I have a pic with pods. Not sure if it's all the same plant or not...Any clues?

    Those pods are off a different plant, perhaps a dogbane Apocynum.

    That's often a 'problem' with identifying climbing / vining plants like grapes, they grow over other plants and get mixed in with them tightly ;-)
