BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Since we have a bunch of Fiend families headed to the Fort in the coming weeks, I thought it would be great if those there now could give us real time reports on which loops/sites seem to be the most decorated. And if you can throw in some photos to boot - BONUS POINTS! :) Also for those of us not able to get to the Fort for the holidays, we could use a little dose of that fantastic Fort holiday cheer!

JaimeN 8 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I'm still coming up with our decorations. Being our first year at te Fort for the holidays I'm sure I'll leave with more ideas for next year. Where is the closest place to get a love tree down there. I'm assuming the wal mart super center?

Command Module...AKA-Brian 8 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I can't wait to see the decorations, this is my family's first time at the Fort so we are bringing some of our stuff with us, no where near what we have at the house, I'm a bit of a Clark W. Griswold III when it comes to the decor, if it were up to me someone would be following us with a trailer full of stuff to put up but DW says we are here for fun not work! :gaah: Oh well, at least I can take some pics of others hard work!

buddy1969 1 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 We'll be arriving 12/11. 1st holiday season and only 2nd time ever staying at FW. 1st time back in summer and no we're hooked. Wife is going crazy getting stuff together to decorate our site. Won't be as dramatic as many photos I've seen, but every little bit helps. I'll definitely update with pics of decorations once we arrive. We have the evening of 12/14 set aside to just ride the Fort and admire the decorations.

I think it's the combined efforts of ALL the campers at the Fort - big and small - that make it so magical during the holidays. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 When we left on 11/17, Jeannie was not on her site. Don't know what's up there. Hilda hadn't begun decorating, so I suspect she won't put much out. She's had a hard fall, and I don't blame her. In previous years both of them would have had all their decorations out by that time.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I thought I saw someone post somewhere (not here) that Jeannie is not at the Fort? I have seen some recent reports from this week that Hilda hasn't put much or anything out so far (can't blame her either). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 When we left, Jeannie's Jeep was parked in the overflow lot. Had been there for several days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alexwyattmommy 181 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Hilda had no lights on during our week there. I kept expecting to see something the next night.That site that has the monorail set up on it was pretty cool. Even my teenage boy and almost teenage boy enjoyed walking around it.
