TNGibby

Hey TNGibby - nice looking sign!   We are just up the road in Kingsport, BTW.  

Glad to "meet" you Rob. May run into each other around the campgrounds here in beautiful E.TN or down at FW. Got a question for you- When you go down to FW, where do you stop overnight? Our first trip to the Fort is coming up in Nov. and trying to do my planning.

Wow!

 

It's beautiful.

 

Good job!

 

How did you make it?

TCD-  I have been woodworking for many years. I just bought a CNC Router (Computer Numerical Control). It is a booger to learn this programming stuff. I may go back to a mallet and chisel before it is over!

First FW trip coming up and we wanted a sign. This is my first acceptable prototype. Needs refining. Not completely satisfied but will do for a local camping trip coming up in a few days. Comments welcomed.

PPS- Made another reservation already for Feb 2016!!!!!

Quick update. We are traveling with friends who have not been to Disney since the mid 80's. We had reservations to stay 8 nights...just called today and added 2 more days!!! We had built up about staying at the Fort (even though it will be our first time). They had mentioned it to other friends and EVERYONE told them how great it is there. So we decided to staying longer. Plus got the reservation for a golf cart!!! Really getting excited. Looking forward to November but a few other camping trips before then :)

Anchor Down RV Resort Dandridge TN just outside of Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg TN...

Thanks Brady. I had considered Green Acres. Looks nice. But that is about 100 miles further. This will be our first 'long" trip pulling the TT and I do all the driving. I'm a little older and have a minor physical problem and wanted to try to stay at 250-300 the first day. But it certainly is a possibility and I will consider it.

Thinking about stopping at Barnyard RV Park in Lexington SC and at Stage Coach RV Park in St. Augustine FL for 1 night each. Any opinions of these two places? That would leave me just 150 miles on 3rd day in FW.

Several have mentioned it already but another PLUS for Anchor Down...

Carol, what is a Grand Gathering???

Ahhhhh. Now I understand. Thank you for the info...and thank you for the welcomes!

Just made our first FW reservation. (This will fulfil an item that has been on the bucket list for 42 years!)  Did the reservation on line for September and signed up for a Premium site. My question is that at no point was there any question nor place to put what type or size of RV I am bringing. I know from the Fiends app that the length of sites vary and I would not be able to fit on some of the shorter sites. Do I need to contact them? Will they follow-up with me before arriving? Also there was no option to note or request a certain loop or site. Any advice would be helpful.
