  1. I'm the dummy for not booking sooner but I've waited till February last few years to make sure we could go. If anyone spots a change in that week let me know.
  2. Went to book a site for spring break and sadly they are all gone. I just looked a few days ago and every tier was available on a variety of day selections and stay lengths. Went to book last night and there are zero options available for any combination of days the week before Easter. I even called reservations and they concurred. Oddly the CM asked me to ask whoever makes the decisions if we could come the week before. I let him know I was the decision maker and promptly hung up. Guess they flipped the switch. And I'm looking for plan B.
  3. I've been meaning to try frying one too. Either way, I'd love to be down there.
  4. Same to you. I was just talking to my wife about if anyone makes a turkey at a campground....we think it's something we'd like to do soon.
  5. Funny you say that BigTom, I just read over on the Grand Design forum that a dodge 1500 is exactly capable of 1000 lbs of payload. The gentleman who wrote it up said his 1500 is only rated for 950 pounds of payload, needless to say he was astounded by the limited capability of his purchase.
  6. I see they are not in you list but the best tire I ever ran for towing were Nitto Dura Grapplers. Amazing tire.
  7. I feel for you and your family. We stay way away from the fireworks for this exact reason, and because my wife is lying at 5' 2". I can't see any benefit to Disney by allowing this to happen, let alone on a consistent basis. If we do happen to need a cross park move around this time, we take the long way around the back of fantasy land, and if trying to exit, we only go through adventure land, and into Caseys and through the shops. Sometimes they will open the overflow exit that runs from the medical station to the barber shop. Terrible crowd control planning when redesigning that area.
  8. I have seen not only gas, but side x sides as well. I think it's ridiculous. Ride a bike.
  9. Just looking this morning, there is a ticket with a 67 dollar savings, so a $134 savings on 2 APs is a pretty good deal.
  10. From what I have experienced, you dont know until they hand you your packet with a number on it. One CM let me look at the book while they told me what sites were open. Maybe someone who has done express can chime in too.
  11. No I haven't. Do you mean in order to toast them? I love how soft the kings Hawaiian rolls are.
  12. We take Kings Hawaiian rolls, open the package, cut it like one huge bagel, open er up and put on meat and chesse. Then take the open halves and put the condiments on so they end up between the meat and cheese so it doesn't make the bread soggy. Shut the halves and cut with a pizza cutter or knife and bag 2 in a sandwich bag and toss in cooler. These are my absolute favorite road trip snack and since they keep in the freezer, we make 2 sets and throw one in the rv fidge for the ride home.
  13. Yes we do. I wont recommend them. Do you like basketball?
  14. I thought it was strange too, but figured I'd ask here. I know one individual tried the AAA office and was told there were no itineraries available due to damages. Maybe it was a temporary hold.
  15. So I've been wondering the last few days about the impact of the Hurricane destruction on all of the cruise ship destinations. Some friends at work have been told that there will be little to no cruises available this summer due to the multiple storm strikes. Should we prepare for a massive influx of WDW guests all over property as a vacationers look for a plan b? I was going to plan a trip with my sisters family this coming summer. My oldest niece is heading to college in the fall and I thought maybe we should get the booking done early. Heard anything around the travel world?
  16. I'll agree we weren't really bothered besides the Cougar guy. I too run a bw, I say it's the best hitch you can buy, but it is a heavy mother. And just when I thought I had things narrowed down, Grand Design, a manufacturer I was hoping to find made something I liked, just put up a new 320mks floor plan that is spot on what we're looking for. I didn't see it at the show, so now I've got to take another trip to a dealer in my future.
  17. Just for fun, just looked at hotels for the spring break week as we're camperless at the moment. Polynesian, $916.....per night. Who has this type of cash? I mean, here's why credit cards are a bad idea even if you're rich. If you had to stand at check in and lay down 50 $100 bills for your vacation hotel only, no way you would go through with it. And the place will be sold out no doubt.
  18. That's good to hear. You don't see a lot of Columbus 5th wheels on the road around here. Only worry is dealers are two hours either way.
  19. I stand by my statement, hail storms can happen anytime even while driving. One of our members even recently totalled his truck and camper driving on new pavement on a sunny day. Anything is possible. I know you can use the money for whatever....what I mean by my second statement is that if you crash your rv without full coverage you could end up with a lein on your home without the collateral. It's just not a good idea in my mind but ymmv.
  20. We didn't leave home as early as I would have liked but we did make it by 10:15 and beat the crowd rush. I must say there are too many people for the amount of security lines and water vendors. If I ever come back, it will be on a week day....they must really clean up with the revenue though! The Cougar rep was a real wack job. While looking in the camper with us, he asked if we were ready to buy, and I told him in the spring. He replied, you'll pay 5 grand more then. I responded, you may get someone else to pay 5k more in the spring, but not me! After comparing against the others
  21. It would be reckless to not have full coverage on a home equity loan with the little bit it costs. One tree, hail storm or whatever puts your real home at risk.
