What do you all think about the 900 loop? It's pet friendly, isn't it? -

Long Term Stays at the Fort
Tnvolcamper replied to Retired & Tired (Judy)'s topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I have actually wondered the same thing. Last visit, there were several campsites that the people looked like they were permanently staying....one had a full size fridge outside of their camper and an unbelievable amount of Halloween decorations.....we drove our golf cart around this site several times just to look at all of the decorations...I thought it was pretty cool, but I cannot imagine someone setting all of that stuff out (including the fridge) just for a visit!!! -
I haven't been to Epcot in many years, and my girls (ages 7 and 13) have never been. We are adding to our list next visit...what are must sees/things to do there for kids those ages?
-
I have no idea why I am just now finding out about this show, but I am intrigued....We have never seen it...what do you all think about it? I may have to add it to the list next visit! And, while I am at it...what are your favorite things to do at Hollywood Studios. The day we went last year was rainy and I had a grumpy 6 year old with me, so I didn't get to see as much as I would have liked...What are your favorite things to do/see there?

THANK-YOU for sharing this....I cannot wait to try it! One of my grandpups is a little yorkie and she is the pickiest thing...this may do the trick!!!

I discovered this recipe last year and the kids ask for it ALL of the time! It's a camping favorite now! Take corn on the cob (if buying corn in the husk, remove husk and let it soak in cold water for about 5 minutes before starting).....Rub extra virgin olive oil, generously, all over corn...sprinkle garlic powder, nutmeg, sea salt and, and cracked black pepper...loosely wrap in aluminum foil (sealing the foil edges, but leaving plenty of room on the inside so the foil isn't directly touching the corn. THEN, put on the grill for 20 minutes.....it's simple, but tastes FANTASTIC!

We LOVE our Class C ....we also had a TT, but found a great deal on a Motorhome, and I absolutely love it. We took it to the Fort last Fall, my daughters sat at the table, colored, played games, and watched movies while my husband and I took turns driving (I find it easy to drive....feels like driving a truck)....we also camp locally (almost every weekend in the summer) and it is so nice to just jump in the camper and go....It is a Vista Cruiser mini...looks small on the outside, but extremely roomy on the inside. Oh yeah, we also have to little pups underfoot as well!!!! I think you will be h

Thanksgiving....too crowded?
Tnvolcamper replied to Tnvolcamper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I may just stick with our early Oct plans.....I love that time so much! I will try to hide out in Gatlinburg since it is close to our home during Thanksgiving I guess ...lol...holiday time means family drama time....and I am already planning ways to avoid it....so it's either Gatlinburg or a case of Pinot Grigio :-) -
We have been to Disney twice with our girls and both times have been late Sept., early Oct...and the lines are short, the weather is perfect, and to be honest, I think it's the most ideal time to go...However, there is a change in the school calendar next year for Fall break so it has me questioning whether or not we should go to the Fort at Thanksgiving, plus the thoughts of being with only my husband and 2 girls and away from our maniacal extended families is very enticing...Is it too crowded then?
-
Thanks for the link! I think we are going to give it a try when we go! May not be the best food, but it sounds like a fun experience!!

Make your own Dishwashing Detergent
Tnvolcamper replied to Tnvolcamper's topic in Crafting: Camping and beyond
YES! They work great! I don't put mine in the little door compartment, I just throw a cube in every cycle!!! -
Make your own Dishwashing Detergent
Tnvolcamper replied to Tnvolcamper's topic in Crafting: Camping and beyond
ME TOO!!!! My favorite combination is processing 2 bars of ivory soap (free and clear), then mix that with 2 cups each of borax and washing soda....2 tbls per load and it works great and is allergy-free as well!!! -
I haven't seen anyone review the Sci Fi Dinner Theater yet!!! Is it worth it? It sounds really cool, but I don't know of anyone who has actually gone to it!
-
I would like to try the Le Cellier as well!
-
I make my own dishwashing detergent and it saves me LOT of money (the store bought ones are so expensive) so I thought I would share some of my hillbilly chemistry with you all if you're interested! This is for one ice tray: 1 cup borax, 1 cup washing soda, 1/3 cups epsom salt, and the juice of one plastic lemon ... Mix together, spoon into an ice tray....let sit overnight or dry all day in the sun...and, you now have the best diswashing detergent ever....no more spots!

There are 4 of us....my husband and myself, plus our soon to be 13 year old and 7 year old!!! I second Be Our Guest, but make sure you get online at 6:00 AM exactly at your 180 mark to make your ADR. It books fast. Who is in your party? That would influence my recommendations.

Thank-you! I am a camping nerd....I actually have a notebook where I write all of this stuff down so I will remember!!!!

Last year, we learned that we need reservations to go to the Sci-Fi drive-in dinner place in Hollywood Studios (so that's on my list for next Fall unless you all tell me it's not worth it)....but, what other BIG, dinner attractions would you all recommend?....I am assuming the new Beauty and the Beast dining is worth a reservation??? And, what about Epcot? What are the best places to eat there? I know the Fort has the hoop de doo musical review is a favorite with some, but we live in East TN and very close to Dollywood....every DAY is Hoop De Doo. I appreciate any input! :thank-you-smiley3:
