stefa70 205 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Time for another update. The sooner I get this report done, the sooner I can start hounding TCD to get his started, and the sooner I can start repacking to go back. :raspberry2:Monday 10/31I wake up to the sounds of raindrops on the rv, which only continue to get harder. What the Fort? It can't rain, it's Halloween!I sat down in my jammies, coffee in hand, to watch the weather. Obviously Mother Nature didn't care that it was Halloween, the rain was here to stay for a while. The Fort was very quiet, except for a few crazies riding around in their golf cart. I won't mention any names, but this guy is definitely pro-poncho. We stayed high & dry in the screen room, while Mason went back to bed.He was exhausted after all the late night parties and all the company we had.Finally around noon, the weather cleared up and we were able to go out and about. We did the usual, dog walking and looping. We rode down by the bike barn to take some pictures (which will be in the all fort post) but I did see this guy trying to catch a fish.When we got back from a cart ride, Jen was outside decorating her cart for the parade, so I walked over to chat with her. When I looked up at my rv, I was being watched.He had heard me talking and was making sure I hadn't forgot about him.While I was at Jen's I realized Donnie had left an ugly green hat sitting on the table, so I got some masking tape and my crayons and redesigned it for him.I think it looks much better now.Being the last full day, and raining for the first half, before I knew it, it was time for the golf cart parade. I quickly gathered my camera, chair and drink. I couldn't be late, I had a date! A real date, with a living, breathing man. Before you get all worked up, let me ease your mind. Trevor was tagging along too! And my date had his two daughters with him! When I went to visit TCD that morning for our gnome picture, he had invited us to watch the parade at his site with him and the girls. You guys all know that I love me some TCD!!It was great to spend some time with them, as they are usually on the go when at the Fort.I won't bore you with all the golf cart pics, since they have been everywhere, but I'll give you a couple.This guy walking was even more impressive than his cart. He was quite the entertainer! That night he came through our loop TOTing and was still acting the role and telling pirate jokes.A yeti!This one was not only decorated as the haunted mansion, complete with the stretching room, he also had the soundtrack from when your in that room. Great job!Nemo was very nice also! One of my favorites (I had 3)This was another favorite. We actually talked to him at his site earlier and he explained how he made it.Our fearless leader, AuburnJenMy other favorite! They did a fantastic job on Mater, down to every detail.Total Joker & MissyWake up! I swear that's all the carts I'll post.Right after the parade it was time for TOTing. We rushed back to our site and brought out the candy. I had bought 3 large bags (200 pieces per bag) and was worried that I would run out. Turns out, it wasn't bad at all and I ended up with about 100 pieces left over. It was great to see all the costumes, and all the kids enjoying themselves. I was pleasantly surprised at how many of them had manners, saying Thank You, and Happy Halloween. I like to think WDW brings out the best in everyone.Not sure what these guys were aiming for, but they had a good time!This was the cutest costume I saw that night, but I may be a little biased.By the time TOT was over, Lorna was hosting the GG at her site. It was 9:00pm by that time and I was exhausted. We walked over and took some goofy pictures in honor of KFK, but when I glanced over at hubby, he was holding up the golf cart (or vice versa). The week of partying had finally caught up to us. He wanted to take a last loop around the Fort as we would be packing up in the morning. By the time we got back, I couldn't keep my eyes open. I was just about to get into the shower when Doodle called to tell me Bouncing tigger (Steve) had finally showed up so I walked back over to meet him. I was glad he finally came around, and I also caught Jen for goodbyes as they were leaving that night.I made it back to the rv at midnight, showered and hit the hay!Since it's Halloween, here's a few random shots of decorations.Tomorrow is THAT day, the day I have to pack up and face reality, and I'm never happy about it. :gaah: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Great update and photos!My comments:1. It was great watching the golf cart parade with you and Trevor!2. We stopped by later on Halloween night and all the lights were off at your site. We hung with the Fiends a bit, and sampled some of the pot luck offerings, but we were surprised that you had already called it a night. For some reason, I thought you guys were staying until Wednesday.3. WTF?:TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H in SC 85 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Except for the green guys, GREAT WONDERFUL FANTASTIC Trip Report !!!! :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doodlebug....Cherie 461 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Great job, Stef. This was my first Halloween at the Fort and after reading all the comments about past ToTing I wasn't sure what to expect. It wasn't bad at all, almost like what we would see at home. I really loved seeing all the kids in costume. Especially our resident sweetie pie. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stefa70 205 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 The green guys really threw me too. I even walked over to Jen and asked what was up with the green penis guys. Because I don't have small kids anymore, I don't pay a lot of attention to the newer Disney movies or shows. I wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something.Their butts said MORPHSUITS if that helps?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kampfirekim 260 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 My Mama always said dont give the goods away for free, make them pay for it.

It didn't really help me that much! :rofl2: This update started with four of my favorite things: Rain, Awning, Coffee, Fort. Ahhhhhh Lil' Piece of Heaven.I'm glad the weather cleared up and didn't spoil ToT-ing.I'll bet Donnie loved the improvements changes to his hat. Now he just needs to put a "before" pic in his signature with a "click here to see my mods" button. :rofl2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Those green costumes freak me out. I am anti-Blue Man Group, and they remind me too much of them. I'm gonna have nightmares now tonight. Thanks for that. :nyd: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How can you not like the Blue Man Group?I am Pro-Blue Man, at least they wear pants. The green guys didn't leave enough to the imagination, if ya know what I mean. They were having a good time though and posed for me, and then again for Jen, so who am I to judge? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stefa70 205 Posted November 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 A quick off topic update this morning.In a previous post I told you I had the pleasure of spending a couple hours with TJ & Missy. We had such a great time, I forgot what I had stashed in the camper. Sorry TJ, I blame the punch...or Dave. We did a lot of looping on this trip, and for some reason we kept ending up in the 400 loop. Trevor was being drawn to one site in particular. We've never stayed in the 400's, so it took me a few days to figure out what the attraction was. Every time we would pass this site, he would sigh heavily and get this sad look on his face.When I got home and compared pictures from past trips, it all became clear to me. This is what site 417 looked like back in September.He was missing his sleeveless buddy Bruce. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
