I'm just glad they see the potential in the RV market.  I also hope that this will mean that the Fort is here to stay for another 47 years. 

Just got the Fort Wilderness ears, thank you for prompt service. I have put them away until the end of the month, as an anniversary present for my wife. I'm sure she'll love them. I showed my daughter your etsy site, and told her she could have a pair if she got her math grade up by our next trip in March.

Those are all really cute!

Just watch for the fountains when you pressurize those lines this spring!

At the Fort now.  New (to us) survey markers in place: 1.  In the grass immediately adjacent to the Settlement bus stop and the road 2.  In the large open field between the bus stop and P. Hall 3. Between Trails End and the playground. 4. In the trees between the playground and the beach.  Asked a bus driver about the survey markers adjacent to the bus stop, he replied he didn't know.   He did say a few other things, but I'll put those in the Rumors  Section.

My wife is making some pretty cool ears.  Her Etsy store is called Trip toppers, and recently she finished these fort themed ones.  She really does a great job and is fast at getting them out. I will be posting them as she makes them.
If you would like a link to purchase, please pm me.  
If you have any suggestions for others you would like, they can absolutely be made just for you. 
Thanks!

As usual it depends who's checking you in.

Never a pet fee on the 3000 loop 

Welcome to FF.  All loops now, And they add a fee per night per pet.  

I've said before the best part of camping at the Fort with a an RV is having a fridge to take Mickey Bars home. 

Yes I do. We brought our 12 volt Dometic fridge/freezer we bought for the bus with us to Disney in August. I brought back 30 Mickey Bars and 10 of the Ice Cream Sandwiches. I am rationing them. Will probably restock at Halloween. lol

Cool. I'll let my family know. Thanks 

Next to the poop tanks! Maybe they could find a better spot?

Ate at the TE tonight for dinner (damn delicious).  Tried to walk up, because hey, it's always half full.  It was a bit busy in front with the hoop de doo shift change, but they told me no walk ins.  So what's a guy to do? Well, I'll tell you....you open up your disney app and pick one of the 10 available times, walk back up to the podium and get shown to your table in a half to 3/4 full restaurant.  Why do this? I watched several families get told the same thing and walk away.  Best part was, it was getting late and there were piles of fresh food left....all to be thrown in the "compost pile" as I was told.  
Makes no sense,  unless you make so much money you no longer care.  A regular person just can't comprehend their logic.  
Did I mention it's still tasty as could be?
Happy reservations!

Before you buy anything,  make sure you are ready for RV ownership.   In general, be prepared for one minor emergency on almost every trip.  If you're not handy, now is a good time to run or learn. 
I like the RVing lifestyle because I enjoy tinkering, and it keeps me busy.  We can afford longer trips than at hotels etc, but at the same time you will be astounded by the rigs people have.  I'm at the Fort now and have seen a handful of Prevost buses this week at a half a million bucks and up...so many crew cab diesels at 65 grand it's mind blowing.  Even with what I have into my fixer upper and used truck I could have bought a lot of nights at the Poly.
As far as the other advice, it's all good stuff and i agree with 30 to 35 off msrp.  And I'll add these rigs are all tossed together with little care and the workers are paid by the piece so be prepared for even a new one to have problems day 1. 
Enjoy the search!

Happy to report a 2000 mile round trip to the FORT was no problem for the new GoodYear Endurance tires.  No loss of air pressure, ran really cool with the laser temp gun and tracked well.  Best part is the 87 MPH speed rating allows you to cruise at 70 or better and creep a little quicker on downhill coasting without getting nervous.  I also checked the tread depth when I was cleaning up after getting home and they all still had exactly 8/32" of tread on all grooves, just like when I left.  So far I'd recommend. 

Thank you for asking.   It was amazing to have a near new rig as we've always had something at least 10 years old.  2 couches, huuuge shower, and the outdoor kitchen made the trip so much more enjoyable as well as the power awning for breaking down camp.  I did have an issue with my new roof sliding back, I guess my glue didn't bond well, but I'll take care of it.  Otherwise, a plumbing leak I found that looks to be leaking since it was new was all i had to repair at the Fort.
