Cosmic Rays has a pretty good rotisserie chicken. How do you spell rotisserie? It's good anyway, and it comes with really good mashed potatoes and green beans.

Annoying problems and trailers go hand in hand. I really expect them and just don't let them get me down. We had a Jayco Kiwi which I loved and had many years of camping memories in, but it was not without it's problems. The first year we had a roof leak, the gasket around the front bunk had to be replaced about 3 years in, there was a leak around the rear bunk frame which I had to repair about the second year, the final thing was the door gaskets around the front storage area leaked, rotted the floor under the vinyl and had to be replaced. Anytime you cut a hole in a trailer, you open up

They also have chili and soup, different types.

Roaring Forks

My wife and I did it a couple years ago. Our character was Goofy.

If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all

Okay I just went into the shop function, ebooks, then did a search on Ridley Pearson and the first three listings that came up were the first three books in the Kingdom Keeper series.

Things I haven't thought of to look for on my Nook.....sounds like a plan for tomorrow :banana: Until the Nook color came out, Kingdom Keepers weren't available. I guess B&N marketed the Nook to adults, and targeted the younger market for the Nook Color, so "children's books" were added to the ebook lineup. I would periodically do a search on Ridley Pearson and one day - poof- there was a huge listing for Kingdom Keepers, the Peter Pan series - all his children's books. So I downloaded book 3 in the series and now am waiting for book 4. I saw the release date on the B&N compute

I have been waiting for the April release, too. You can now download the series on the Nook from B&N. Sweet!

Outside of hurricanes, I have never really seen an all day rain in Florida. My FIL used to say, "If you don't like the weather in Florida, wait an hour."

True that.

Yep - that's what we do too. Rain keeps the crowds away, but the parks remain open. It's all a mental thing. You just have to not care whether you get wet or not. The only negative is the air conditioned areas - when you're wet, it can be a bit chilly.

Just got done talking to a new Outback owner who didn't get a spare tire with his 2011 model. He said Keystone lists the tire, carrier and cover as an option. You might want to check with your dealer.

Mine is pretty easy to find - it's mounted on a bracket on the rear bumper.

It's more of a walk through a field than a walk in the woods, though.

Gotta watch the hitch weight. 2 Harleys is a lot of weight.

Magic Bullet, FWGirl and the Wonder Beagle.

We have a Mickey soap dispenser in the Rv, as well as a Mickey toothbrush holder and an assortment of Mickey and Minnie washclothes and towels.

Germany - love the beer, the food, the women - brings back some great memories, and some of the food is like my momma used to make. Japan - Kirin beer in the outdoor dining area, and I love the junky stuff they sell in the store and all that weird candy and stuff - WTH? China - they have the greatest display of reproductions of those terra cotta soldiers. Canada - Off Kilter - great entertainment. England - the pub. Norway - the women. And that funky movie nobody likes to watch really isn't that bad, they should just make you watch it before Maelstrom. Mexico - the market place is great, and

I think it was 2 years ago FWGirl and I took the drive over to the preserve. I liked it, she didn't. If you are expecting beautiful wooden walkways, souvenier stands selling Disney plush and turkey leg vendors, you will be disappointed. If you want to see what Florida looked like prior to all the development, then you are in for a treat. Bring lots of bug repellant and your camera. About halfway you end up at a beautiful lake. I was hoping to see a gator, but no such luck. It is very under-visited. There was one guy working there when we went. Quite a few people stopped, but very few

Allison - sent you a PM on Facebook. Re. the issue at hand here - I used to get really frustrated when we went on a Fort trip and all Chris wanted to do was stay in the camper and nap. Then I realized that to her, that was vacation, and she didn't really deal well with all the activity a Disney trip entails. We were able to leave her in the camper during the day while we were out and about, although she was older than your daughter at the time. Everybody was happier. As far as pulling myself out, I discovered many years ago while on an Army deployment that, at the end of the day, it helped

That is an idea - since we are a camping board and pretty much everybody has a spare tire on their camper, how about a Fort Fiend spare tire cover?

I really like my Outback 210rs. Here's a couple things to watch for. Many have had some issues with the upper brackets breaking for the supports for the rear slide. Mine started to crack and I noticed I had to tighten them every time the slide was opened. I bought some new ones (they are the same brackets that hold the awning supports and available at any camper supply place) and put in some new bolts from Lowes and have had no problems since. The original bolts were actually bent. Keep an eye on the tracks inside that the slideout rides on in the ceiling. Some have had issues with thes

There's a ton of wasted space under the "jacknife" sofa in our Outback. I relocated the freshwater pump to a more accessible space under ours and this spring I plan on replacing the screws that hold the decorative front on the sofa with industrial strength magnets, walling off the remaining empty space from the pump and water heater and using that space for storage for all the throw blankets we have accumulated from Disney over the years.
