asquared....Ally replied to twiceblessed....nacole's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
They are expensive to buy, need to be maintained and the pads need to be replaced yearly so no we do not carry one. We are trained and certified in BLS (CPR) and I am also trained in ACLS though. -
We are staying at Coronado Springs in May as I have a conference and decided to take the family. What things are you allowed to do at the other resorts? ie pools etc We are going to use the resort as entertainment and skip the parks this go around.

Preview of the Redesigned Coronado Springs Resort
asquared....Ally replied to AuburnJen's topic in Resorts Board
I wonder how intrusive the construction is going to be. I have a conference at Coronado Springs in May. I'm taking the family with me. Hopefully it won't be too annoying. -
Glad they took care of you. They have taken great care of me in the past. Between the FROG rallies and the Forest River customer service, I will only buy a forest river product for my next trailer. Just like Dblr and the OP, I have seen them fix major items out of warranty for friends. They have bent over backwards for owners. They even assisted me with my new brakes and bearings repair out of warranty this year.

Thought I would cross post this here to help them out. if anyone is near Jonesboro Arkansas, there is a dog that went missing after a roll over car accident. Apparently their black Scottie was killed and the Wheaton colored one ran off. original thread link to pics of dog and contact info

Pecan Park RV Park
asquared....Ally replied to disneylitch......Debbie's topic in Camping To and From the Fort
we stayed there on our way to disney in August. It was clean, had a nice pool and sites were reasonable. Nothing fancy but it served the purpose for a safe, clean overnight. There is a flea market next door on Saturdays and vendors will stay in the campground. We never felt unsafe in fact quite the opposite. They offer good Sam discounts also. -
We were there last week and honestly they weren't as bad as they are here in NC. I was surprised at how well behaved they were. Maybe they just preferred the taste of our tent camping neighbors? Or maybe it had something to do with the lovely alligator DH and DBIL saw swimming in the canal between the pool and the 1300 loop. He was the friendly sort and even stopped and turned to say hi to them.

Requesting a Specific Loop

that was not there when I did on- line check in just over a week ago -
Check Your Roof
asquared....Ally replied to Discamper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
just to be clear if you choose to recall instead of the eternabond method, you do need to remove the old caulk before laying down new caulk. Also make sure you know what your roof is made of and you get the appropriate caulk. I have never used or bought eternabond but it does sound like a good idea to have. We wash our roof 1-2x year. DH gets up on the roof every trip to blow off any debris before closing the slide. While up there he checks on things like the caulking. -
waited too long, need back up plan
asquared....Ally replied to asquared....Ally's topic in Off Property Rentals (Non Disney)
thanks. pain is temporary. memories are forever. -
let me just say, I experienced a few sudden stop situations towing home from disney on sat. I had several drivers cut me off, one try to merge on top of me, cars screeching to a halt for an accident as I popped over a hill, and a driver deciding standing on his brakes on 95 was a good idea. He must have seen that purple squirrel that keeps distracting the fiends. In all of these situations I was thankful I had my truck instead of my old armada because I had enough truck to safely and quickly bring the trailer to a sudden halt. I did use my brake controller but that is what it's there for.

Wifi Improvements?
asquared....Ally replied to Takemeanywhere's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
we brought our own wifi modem. well technically it's the one we rent from time Warner cable. worked great the whole time. No signal issues with that plugged in. -
Requesting a Specific Loop
asquared....Ally replied to Thrill Shakespeare (Andy)'s topic in Fort Wilderness Loops Information
we requested the 1300 loop for last week. We booked through AAA. They put the request on the reservation. I called a month out and the day before to confirm the request. Both times it was confirmed. Arrived the morning of and they tried to put me in 700 loop where there was a ready site. I looked the site up on my handy dandy fort fiends site app and didn't want the site. I told them no and I wanted my request. they did give me a 1300 site after some argument but I did have go wait a few hours for it. -

And the adventure resumes.......maybe
asquared....Ally replied to Lou...'s topic in Travel and Transportation
welcome back to the buses. We hit Epcot tues. Yesterday was AK in the am and DHS in the pm. Something happened to the buses that one didn't hit the fort for an hour in the am. Cost us the magic hours. DH and I took it in stride. The lady next to us not so much. I felt bad for the drivers dealing with her. First was one going to DHS, the lady tried to find out where the bus was (in a not so friendly way). that driver was no help, just said he didn't know and drove off. Next was a very nice guy going to Epcot (marcelino was his name) who helped us out by calling to find the bus for us. -
We went to see Sofia yesterday. Ordinarily she is right next to the Disney Jr show but because it was raining the moved her to a more covered area in the back of the magic of animation. Here is a pic of my DD with her in the rain safe area and we sneaked my DD past the ropes to get her in for a pic of her at the Enchancia backdrop. We came later in the day so we missed Jake

waited too long, need back up plan

just an update.... used one of the above suggested for golf cart, they were great. :) Ended up skipping the scooter and only had a significant amount of pain at the end of the 2nd night at the parks and for a few hours late in the day on the 3rd day. Did fine on the 4th park day. Skipping the scooter worked out. Tomorrow is a down day at the fort and then time to head home on Sat. -
Horse Barn Closed
asquared....Ally replied to jimp2061's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I will check out the pony rides tomorrow and let you know. I know they ave been keeping a string of horses up at the trail rides. I also noticed a few draft horses up there. didn't even know you could tour the horse barn or I would have been banging the doors down earlier this week. I think when I checked in and asked about the trail rides and pony rides at the trail ride desk, the lady told me pony rides were at te ack of the ort. she didn't mention them being closed. -
here are 2 pics from DD's first day at the magic kingdom yesterday. Her face after meeting Ariel made everything worth it.

stopped at pecan park rv resort in Jacksonville fl last night. easy on/off the highway. large paved full hook up sites. nice pool. friendly staff. Clean well cared for rv park. only downside it is on the airport flight path (one exit up from the airport on 95). with ur air on the only thing we really heard was a fighter jet flyover (well actually 4 of them) but that was early in the evening. With AAA it was $44/night. without it would ve been $49/night. I highly recommend overnighting there.

We will be arriving this sat 8/10 and leaving sat 8/17. We have park hopper for 4 days. We are planning AK for 1 day, Epcot for 1 day, MK for maybe a day and a half leaving us a half day free for whatever we need to go back to or go to Hollywood studios if finished other stuff. The CRT is tues at 1015. I think we might relax sun after driving all day fri and 3-4 hrs sat. Thinking AK on mon, mk on tues, not sure which parks on the other days and which days we will use as down time. might be open to starting on sun if that's what the in laws want to do.... they fly in on sat and will be s
