I'm going to touch on a few topic that i've read in this multi page thread. 1. Is FF slowing down? Answer yes, I think other social media consumes peoples free time online. I think they get most of their breaking news / updates there and come here just to see if anyone they know has something going on. I'm not a social media user I only use Discord and involved in several topic servers there. 2. There are no moose in Great Smokey Mountains National Park, they would be Elk very very big elk. 3. The cost, and frustration of going to DW or the Fort. My wife, our son (now

Jason got our current reservation last year. I have no issue using someone like Jason or others to get our reservations. My wife and I have been talking about leaving our camper down in Florida in storage this winter and coming back down after the 1st of the year and doing a week or two in late Feb / Early March.

This will be our 5th year camping at the fort from late Oct to early Nov, and it will be our final year. My son and I love the Halloween season and going to Not So Scary and my wife loves Christmas season and going to the Christmas party. But trying to book things, and dealing with the overwhelming number of people my wife and I have chosen to camp next year in late Aug through early Sept. This will allow the boy and I to make our Not So Scary, then we will fly down in Mid November for a 4 night stay in a resort and do the Christmas party. I'll miss Halloween at the fort, but boo

Looks good, I have this "bolt heater" from snap On and it does amazing work on rusted / painted bolts It looks like a heat gun but has a coil on the end of it that quickly heats up nuts while leaving the bolt somewhat cool

My lovely wife was giving directions while heading back form Mammoth Cave some how we ended up going over the bridge, turned around and came back over the bridge and we recieved not one, but Two bills in the mail about 2 months after our trip.....

the fort is never "sold out" to the right travel agent. Jason found me 2 weeks in late October - Nov when the website and Disney staff couldn't get me in... Not sure what type of pixie dust he has but it works.

So just finished a 2 night stay at the grand Floridian and 2 days in MK, Last fall when we were down mobile ordering was available but we had dinning plan and you couldn't use dinning credits. NOW they take dinning plan credits, but we din't have the dinning plan BUT all but 2 or 3 of our meals were ordered through the mobile ordering because the lines for food were insane. In my own selfish way I hope this Mobile Ordering doesn't really catch on too much to shift the wait to the mobile people. The line for a Dole whip was about 20 minutes long. I ordered mine as we exited the T

There are tow services that would transport your camper, for a price. We were in Michigan and my lift pump on my truck was acting up. I was not sure if or when I could get it fixed and contacted a few of these transport services to tow my 5er back home in case I couldn't get my truck fixed in time. Thankfully I found a great diesel shop that removed the old lift pump and put in an after market one for a few hundred.

2 years ago when we were down at Tropical Palms resort, I had a busted toilet valve and didn't notice it until we were hooked up around 8pm. I called General RV and hit what ever number for parts service department and to my shock a person answered. They were able to look up the part confirm they had several in stock and pulled one and put my name on it for pickup the next morning when they were open. I think during peak months they run extra shifts but the show room / store is not open.

Its a good time, and the story is enjoyable. You'll enjoy it, as long as you dont mind walking around a bunch.. And being asked "what the heck are you doing?"

Buena Vista just doesn't seem like the best road to tow a trailer down?

On our last trip to WDW I was able to complete both my SotMK and my sons SotMK collections. 1-70 + all party cards. Its taken about 5 years but we got them finished up. While talking to a CM at the fire house about a few of the portholes that were not working all that well I was informed that SotMK may be getting a refresh. I know most of you probably dont partake in this silly park game, but I've always enjoyed it (and the pirates game) as a way to enjoy just walking around the park and just being there.

Seems like each time i visit WDW and drive in google maps like to bring me a new and interesting way. I'm coming from the north down 75s. Historically I take 75 to the turn pike, take that to 4 and exit on 192 or if I miss that to world drive. But my google map wants me to exit the turnpike onto 429 and take that to 192 and into world drive. How do you get to the fort from 75?

Does the Fort offer any discounts for annual pass holders like the other resorts do?

Anchor Down is nice, but about 15 minutes to all the hubbub http://www.anchordownrvresort.com

I agree it would be the issue of the people who complain. I agree with an earlier post that we the quite majority should call and complain about the change in policy so the snowflakes dont win. But I have better things to do than sit on hold for 30 minutes, unlike the snowflakes.

Disney in general isn't good or easy for children with sensory issues.... You could request a table on the far side of the restaurant that's much more quite.

It was the very first time my wife has ever been to that national park!! Shes lived in the South West of Ohio / Northern Ky for almost 20 years now! The Jellystone park was overhauled about 5 or so years ago. Its really nice, but very hard to get into and $$ The baby thing was from when he was in infant, now we use it to contain the dog and he wanted to get in and play with her so I let him. Seems it contained both, though not sure the dog was all that happy he was there.

So for memorial day we decided to take 4 nights and go to Horse Cave Ky, only about 3 hours from home. This park is very close to Mammoth cave, KY Down Under Zoo, and Abraham Lincoln birth place, and boy hood home. We arrived on Saturday around noon and the park was starting to fill up. They don't have many full hookup sites, and we had Water Electric (30amp) site. We got setup, the sites are not level, so it took the auto level a bit to get things sorted out. There was a fare bit of space between sites so the boy and dog could do some real playing as he calls it.

I 100% agree with that, On our trip in October it was during early roll out and I was able to get an "unlock txt" from a cast member driver to use the service. The come direct to your site, and drop you at the door of the resort or entrance to the park. With a small child (3yr) it was worth it after a day at the park to not wait on the bus.

You cant book a site at the Fort, you can request a site, but its only a request. When you check in, if the cast member is nice enough, and is not too busy you can ask to see a list of available sites, but that doesn't happen often. So there is no public list of available sites for a certain date.

I've never seen a manufacture offer a warranties outside of a appliance warranties. Our Grand Design has a manufactures 3 year warranty, that covers everything Grand Design did, not the AC, Fridge, hot water heater ect. Those only have a manufactures warranty and each is its own. There are crap brands out there, that don't stand behind their product, but I've found if you are looking at consumer grade stuff, not 5 * stuff its all built very comparable.

The Brand of RV you choose isn't as important as the Dealer you choose to purchase and service through. I've owned 2 brand new campers and each one had issues that needed to be resolved. The dealer we purchased from was quick to get our camper in and get the issue resolved (Days not Months).

Once again this summer work will be done on I75 through the greater Cincinnati Area. Currently I75 North from just north of the river is due for "Major Construction" Starting this week and lasting most of the summer. My recommendation is if you are traveling North OR South do yourself and your camper a huge favor and take I275 around Cincinnati. If going north take I275 towards Indiana and follow it around until you get back on I75 north. If going South take I275 towards Indiana and follow it around until you get back on I75 South in Kentucky. I75 through Cincin

Its smaller than the shower in our previous Cougar 333mks, but not the snallest i've ever been in. I'm 6'2" 190lbs and I have plenty of room to move around
