Same experience here as well... When we were there in Feb of this year, the internet was fast. We could even stream movies and TV from it. When we were there about 3 weeks ago, it was spotty at best...

HELP Can not retract levelers
Duane replied to fotofx....Steve's topic in RV Repairs on the Road, at FW and Elsewhere
That's gonna be a pretty sweet ride! I hope you get it soon, being "so close but so far" is not a good feeling. REV is the same parent company that built our Discovery... -

Hey, with all of the "contraband" fire pits that I witnessed the other week when we were down there, I doubt you would have any problems... If someone asks, just tell them you have COVID repellent in the torches...

They were correct about Disney Springs.... We were there on Saturday and Sunday, and other than folks wearing masks, the green "stand here" floor markings and the head counting folks stationed outside the shopping establishments, you would never know there was a pandemic happening. The crowds were huge...

Claudine's G'parents and Aunt used to live in Baltimore, or as the locals say "Bal-mer".... So it sounds like you don't have too bad of a trip, unless you have to go thru DC... Anyway, when I sent my last response, I forgot to mention this place. We have never stayed there, but have also heard really good things about this place. Its new, and from what I hear, they are constantly adding things.... CreekFire Motor Ranch.

Debbie, We are in the Raleigh Durham area of NC, but my wife has relatives in Maryland, so we know how that drive is... I have not stayed there, but about 15 miles south of the NC/VA line there is the RV Resort at Carolina Crossroads. I have passed several times on my way north. It seems to be easy in and out to I-95. I've read good things about it for a quick overnight stop. When we go to the Fort from home, we like to break the trip into 2 days. We always stop in Brunswick GA at Coastal GA RV Resort. This one, I can personally vouch for. All paved sites, with mostly pul

They will let you check in early if the site is ready. If for some reason its not, then you can park in the overflow, head to the parks or the pool and they will text you (most of the time) when your site is ready.

Well, since they have tried to stop teaching cursive writing in school, why let a pesky thing like spelling get in the way as well?!

If you can't get into the Fort, boondock!
Duane replied to Travisma's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
That's pretty sweet... However, trucks that used to be the most inexpensive vehicles to own, are quickly becoming, and in some cases the most expensive... I wonder what these new features will add to the overall price of the truck... -

Man, for them to be "social distancing", they all seem pretty clumped up to me.... and that it with "reduced" attendance. Imagine what it will look like tomorrow when they open up to everyone... -
If you need some extra room
Duane replied to Travisma's topic in Camper Suggestions: from tents to Class A beauties
They probably got their inspiration from some of the crazy set-ups that we all have seen drive into the Fort over the years. All they need now is to hook up a 6x12 U-Haul trailer and they will have a mother in law suite! -

Disney Cruise Line Cancellations as of September 15
Duane replied to Katman1356...Jason's topic in Cruises
Just checked this morning for something to do, and it looks like the fleet is spread out all over the place... The Wonder is still cooling her heels outside of San Diego The Dream is at the dock in Port Canveral The Fantasy is outside of Puerto Cortes, Honduras. I think they dropped off some crew in Cozumel recently. The Magic is moored in Ponta Delgada, Portugal. From some of the stuff I've read, the Fantasy and Magic were on repatriation cruises to get their crew back to (or close to) their homes... -
WDW Closings due to COVID19
Duane replied to ImDownWithDisney's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
I would be more inclined not to go just because it would be hot as crap rather than worrying about the virus... I'm still trying to piece together a trip to the Fort in November... I've got the front end and the back in taken care of. Just need to take care of 3 days in the middle. I'm just about to turn this over to Jason and let him have it.
