    Mikeypro reacted to twiceblessed....nacole in Non-pet loops becoming pet loops   
    See...this was our problem for years.  Our daughter used to be TERRIFIED of dogs.  Didn't matter the size.  If she saw you coming down the street with a 2 lbs Chihuahau, she would pull us to the other side of the road and cower behind us.  It was crazy.  Then, we met a friend at the lake and he has this beautiful, wonderful golden that would make anyone love a dog... and that's exactly what it did to her.  She went from terrified to obsessed and then almost a year of asking for a pup before we gave in and adopted Simon. But go back to when she was terrified and having a dog with us in the 100 loop did cause a few problems.  Thankfully, only one time were the other campers close and they left the day after we got there...the others we were able to avoid by going the opposite way around the loop.  But, it could have been a huge, huge problem.

    Thank you all for your well wishes.  Xrays didn't show any obvious fractures, but my doctor suspects a stress fracture.  I have to see an orthopedist tomorrow.

    Our last night ... cleaning the kitchen, washing/drying towels, cleaning the shower, etc.  In the morning I only have to clean the bathroom and pack the computer.  David thinks we may have time to eat at TE before we go!

    Monday, 10/3 -- the Best Day!
    Woke up, looked out, and were disappointed that we didn't see those two little smiling faces across the street waving at us!
    This morning we went to EPCOT early.  Had breakfast at Sunshine Seasons  One last fling on Test Track, then rode The Land.  Went out to the entrance of WS to look around one last time, shopped at MouseGears one last time.  Didn't buy anything  We went there to purchase Mickey watches for each of us, but they were out of the ladies' version, and the CM couldn't answer our questions about resizing the band for David.  
    Came back to the Fort for a few hours.  David put the "hairnet" on DeeDee, removed our tire covers, dried out our rugs, rolled them up, and put them away.  I spent the time cleaning up inside.  So much to do before we leave Wednesday!  I can't believe we only have one more day here..  So much to do, so little time.
    Meanwhile our noisy neighbors all left this morning.   Ya'ay!  Life is now so much better in the 700 loop.
    We had an early dinner at Trail's End, then went to MK.  Got to see MSEP one last time.  We are both so sad to see this parade leave again.  
    After the parade, David went back to the Fort.  I stayed in MK for a few more hours.  Watched the fireworks from behind the castle.  It was weird.  Fireworks were going off in front of me and also behind me.  Not a great spot.
    I continued on and went all around MK.  Took over 300 pictures today.  It's after 1am, and I don't want to go to sleep.  Today was a wonderful day.  I don't want it to end.

    I'm sitting here quietly watching the Food Network on TV.  I'd rather be in MK, but not in this weather.

    Had the same plan for MK...now sitting quietly, browsing the web, and listening to Must Do Disney. I know something must be seriously wrong with me, 'cause I never get tired of listening to Stacey!

    Tuesday, 9/27:
    I have given up on posting pictures while we're here.  The last few days, I can only get Photobucket to cooperate around 5am.  Too early while I'm on vacation!
    Today we went to EPCOT to have lunch at Biergarten.  I really like it there, David not as much.  He thinks it's too expensive for what they serve.  What can I say?  It's Disney.
    We watched a performance by Voices of Liberty.  They have quite a few new people in their group but were as good as always.  Then when we left a thunderstorm started.  We waited for quite awhile for the rain to slack up.
    Then we did something we haven't done in 30+ years.  We watched Impressions de France.  It was really good.  Don't know if it's the original film or whether it's been updated.
    Got back to the Fort in time for David to blow off the top of the motorhome before dark.  He has to do it about once a week because of all the droppings from the trees.
    Am getting sad.  One week from now we'll be packing to go home.  It seems like we just got here.  I know we are incredibly blessed to spend a month at the Fort.   But it's never enough time.  In the next week we'll be trying to cram in everything on our to do list that we haven't had time for yet.  I big wish is that one day we can stay at the Fort long enough to get tired of it.  Maybe winter here.   
    Good evening, all.

    We have a generator, but we have to go out in the dark to unplug our power cord in order to run it.  May have to do it soon.  It's getting stuffy in here!

    Thanks again for the help this morning (big thanks to Mike too?).  Love that we're next to you...hopefully the kids aren't too much.  They had so much fun looping with y'all tonight (we all enjoyed that!?).  Thanks for watching Simon...no doubt he preferred that over his crate.  Crazy, neurotic one that he is ☺️
    How do I get one of these??

    Photobucket is impossible tonight, so only one picture.  And that's because I posted it on FB
    NaCole arrived this morning, and she is right across the street from us!  Ya'ay!  David helped her out with a few things.  He had designated today as his driving day.  So he got in the car and ended up driving to Melbourne.  Then when he got there he turned around and came back.  Didn't even get out of the car until he got back and went to Walmart.
    Meanwhile I had a great time at Disney Springs.  It's been a few years since we've been there, and I was blown away by the changes.  I took lots of pictures, but since TCD has posted such great pictures I won't bore you with mine.
    This afternoon we dogsat Simon for awhile.  He's a sweetheart.

    Then we went looping with NaCole, Simon, and the kids.  When we got back, Mikeypro came over to visit.  It was great to meet him.
    We have no FP+s for the next several days and will be winging it.

    Storm last night was a big one, but my trusty old Coleman Bayside Pop-up handled it with style...I just love the sound of rain on the canvas!

    Got the word several months ago that some dear friends were going to Disney from the 14th to the 24th of October.  Soon 2 friends from California decided to join them, then 2 friends local to Orlando, then I agreed to join them...well it turned out to be 10 adults and 4 children! I knew I would have fun, but I also knew the frustration of doing what the group wanted to do would make me nuts.  Solution: take a solo trip from Sep 17th till Oct 5th and get my full Disney dosage before the big gathering.  So on the line to Jason.
    Oct Trip was a total no go for the fort.  Had to settle for Pop Century.  Sep trip he got me the dates I needed in a full hook up, but not in the preferred loops I like to stay in.  No worries, I was sure I would still have a blast.  
    This morning I get word from Jason that he snagged a Preferred site for my Oct trip!  He handled all the details of swapping out the Pop Century for the Fort.  10 minutes later I get an email from him with my new reservation for the Sep trip as well: he got me a Preferred site for both dates!
    No way I could have pulled this off by myself - it was Jason's total commitment to checking availability continuously that snagged me the preferred sites for both trips.  Jason, thank you so much!!!
