  1. Wow! We were just there also, on Friday night (Southbound on 75) and returning on Saturday night (24 East bound) on our way back from Huntsville. That whole transition is a mess under normal circumstances, I can't imagine dealing with it now. Not good.
  2. Dollywood.......we used to buy season passes and then as the kids got older we chose not to.....the last time we bought season tickets they were $65 and the gold pass was around $80.......we keep talking about going back, but we kinda see this as being in our backyard and always decide to not buy this year, maybe next, and so on.......I enjoy reading everyone's comments around Dollywood especially the pricing comparisons between Disney......the last time we had season passes we compared a day at Dollywood to a day at Disney, minus the admission price, the food and drink were higher at Dollywo
  3. Day 1 -We arrived around 10:30 and requested a couple of our favorite sites. Unfortunately none were available, however Jean was fantastic and offered several options. We ended up in the 1200 loop only a couple site over from one of our favorites. This site has been awesome, and we will add it to our favorites list. After getting setup and all decorations out and placed we headed to the Magic Kingdom, where we had reservations at Tony’s. Now, we had heard very mixed reviews on this place, but since Lady & the Tramp is one of DW favorite movies, we thought we would see for ourselves.
  4. Thanks Blake! I enjoy cooking, especially on my BGE.
  5. Our trip started with a weekend stopover at the Big Green Egg festival, known as Eggtoberfest. This event is held at Stone Mountain Campground near Atlanta, Ga. This has become an annual event for us, and somewhere along the line, my DW realized we were only 7 hours from WDW, so we decided to go on down to WDW for a visit. This has also become an annual occurrence for us, so I wanted to start sharing some of the experiences along the way. First let's talk about the festival. For those of you that don't know, a Big Green Egg is a Ceramic Komado style cooker, that is extremely versatile and can
  6. Well, it has been confirmed, Pomegranate Lemonade at WDW is no more. It has been discontinued by the manufacturer (thanks a lot Coke!). I guess we will have to add this item to list that includes Ooey Gooey Cinnamon Rolls. What a way to start a trip! Not only was my reservations already made, and we were sitting at Tony's when Cast member Ben broke the news to me. For those of you that know me, this was the ONLY reason I came to WDW. It was my favorite drink with a splash (or two) of vodka thrown in. It will never be the same. We may just not renew our annual passes because of this! (Just kidd
  7. Now Dave, there you go attempting to apply logic to a government decision.
  8. That is a NICE site. Care to tell us a little about the place? What it's close to, amenities, things to do, etc......
  9. Agreed. While they have had the bottled KBA the last couple of times I have been, having it on tap is better IMHO.
  10. Chris/Jen When Apple finally decides to upload it to the store, Do you know what the title of the app will be? (for Searching purposes) The last one was searchable by "FW Sites". Or, do you have any control over how it is labeled? Thanks
  11. Just returned from riding slinky dog and I like it better than 7DMT and BTMR. Awesome ride and crowds were not as bad today (Sunday) as they were yesterday. I really appreciated the attention to detail this land has to offer, the Tinker Toys are really cool along with Andy’s footprints throughout the area. TCD has done such a great job already, I just thought I would add my .02 worth.
  12. Chris, I enjoy hearing the battle story as well. Thanks for all that you guys do for this site and the APP.
  13. Wait a minute, you are visiting Waco and not staying with Chip and Joanna? Or maybe you haven't gotten to that part yet?
  14. Frozen Tot, Apply one small ring (pickled or fresh) jalepeno, wrap with half strip of bacon, toothpick it, deep fry until it floats (usually about 2-3 minutes).
  15. Be sure and signup for the Grand Design Owners forum. Lot's of helpful information ...... https://www.granddesignowners.com/forum/index.php
  16. I was thinking in my head "how does he know that man's beer cooler is empty".....then I kept reading.
  17. This past Christmas we watched a 5th wheel toy hauler loaded with decorations, and then a second enclosed gooseneck trailer (like is used for hauling race cars), roll up to a site in order to haul all of their decorations. The crazy thing is they were not the most decorated site in the loop! But, they did have some rather large displays.
  18. Welcome to the forum. Those are some great questions, and there will be many different answers. Here are my general responses to those questions, with the understanding that everyone's preferences and experiences are different regarding brands and new vs old. Ok, we had about an hour to kill and went to a local RV dealer. Wow! Nice stuff! But how do I know i'm getting a good deal? Typically you should expect 30% off of MSRP if buying new Advice for first time shopper? - Look at all of them, without the salesperson in tow, picture yourself packing, unpacking - where w
  19. YES, unless you have a "gold pass" and then one of the perks for that level of season pass is free parking
  20. I don't know about your Trader Joe' s but our "2 Buck Chuck" has evolved into $3.50 Charlie.
  21. When we bought our Reflection, I had the same issue and concern as you. All previous campers we had to wait in between showers for the water to heat back up. In the 3 years we have owned this rig, we have not ran out of hot water. If we are cold weather camping I will turn on the gas and electric if I know we are taking multiple showers in a row. When camping at the fort and most points south I only use the electric. I have been very impressed with the recovery time on these small water heaters.
  22. Looks like WalMart has them for $21. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Camco-30M-30F-Amp-25-PowerGrip-Extension-Cord-125V-3750W-10-gauge-cCSAus/21009152?action=product_interest&action_type=title&beacon_version=1.0.2&bucket_id=irsbucketdefault&client_guid=c153b74f-c0f2-42d8-3c70-31d7d806a23c&config_id=106&customer_id_enc&findingMethod=p13n&guid=c153b74f-c0f2-42d8-3c70-31d7d806a23c&item_id=21009152&parent_anchor_item_id=29764593&parent_item_id=29764593&placement_id=irs-106-t1&reporter=recommendations&source=new_site&strategy=PWVUB&
