  1. Thank you DIT...and yes, she had a familiar face to say the least. She had dark hair, does that count as Native American now? lol...much less
  2. Good point. How did you make them different focused?
  3. Congrats on living the absolute dream :-) I read an article earlier this year on the 4 times that you must experience Disney; 1) Kid 2) Teen 3) As a Parent 4) As a grandparent I love going as a parent and look forward to going with a larger gradybunch as a grandparent. Completing the circle. Good stuff
  4. And we're about the same distance to the Fort...hmmmm
  5. You nailed it DIT...this is my fear exactly. Thank you for talking me down...I think Spring break and Christmas at Disney with a low key fall break somewhere in beautiful east tennessee may be the ticket next year.
  6. Even with the efficiency factor (from accountant to accountant)? We normally camp at the beach on one of our breaks. The third disney trip would be $$$ comparable to that, which is making it hard to pass up.
  7. Awesome that you will be there next week and 14 hours driving is impressive. I drive the full 12 on the way back but it takes me a day to recover.
  8. That's next level stuff right there...I like it
  9. That's a much longer drive than from TN. Impressive Just curious, how far?
  10. Yay! And just a shade under 5 months later. Thank you and the smiles are definitely what make it all worth it. We still pull those pics up and laugh...bless her heart, she is a good sport
  11. Crazy question here but i would like to hear from folks who make multiple long trips to Disney more than twice a year. The trip from our house to the Fort is around 12 hours. The way this started is the wife and I would like to experience for the kids to experience Christmas at the Fort one year. We already have ressies for Spring Break 2016 and next week we could book our 2016 Christmas dates. This brought us to the fact that annual passes would make sense for us to purchase. Which in turn got me thinking about Fall Break 2016...see where this is going? Too much?
  12. Ahhhhhhhh...Fort Days! These are the best days of our vacation by far. Not much picture taking on this day. But relax, relax and relax. And we finally got to take a shower in our camper today. No more mandatory shower trips to the comfort station thanks to Frank's. We had a late breakfast at Kona, it was a nice relaxing ride over...relax is the name of the game today Tonga Toast was awesome Back to the fort and we did some looping...found this site that we liked 713 has made it on our list of sites to stay in very shady So has 624. As a matter of fact this is the site ou
  13. We are booked there November 6-8 site 20 up on the hill! UT - SC weekend... Hope you guys are available
  14. It was imperfectly timed for sure...beginning of summer broken arm is blast Very very hot every day...felt just like when we normally go in september Yikes, I am very careful when l do anything now. Thank you...summer is busy!!!! Thank you, they both look exactly like the misses Brother Rob it was a pleasure to meet you guys at Anchor Down! And i can't wait to see you all again next month. Seems like there are always a few things that go wrong...could've been much much worse.
  15. And it's rope drop day at Magic Kingdom, everybody is excited!!!! Well, most of us are. We are normally NOT the early morning family who is out the door and on schedule, but on this particular day we are killing it. On the boat by 7:15 and in line for rope drop by 7:30 ish. We work our way up to the front right area to give us a good view of the show and have a shorter path to 7DMT. Awesome view of the show. Reese is starting to wake up by now. Just to pause for a second and get a little sentimental. The next pic is the reason we come to disney...these shots make al
  16. Wow...in true procrastinator fashion here it is a few months later and I am continuing the report. In my defense I just got out of my cast today from a broken arm...as a matter of fact, the last time I posted an update selfie sticks were legal, so there's that. Anyway, moving right along to Epcot. This was our first time to see the flower and garden festival as we are normally here for the food and wine deal in the fall. We had FP for soarin at 9:10, meeting mickey and the gang @ 10, and some japanese to each for lunch...all the while throwing some living with the land and spaceship ea
  17. Me too. Luckily hair dryers are fairly easy to replace. That and we go through a half dozen of them a year anyway. Now we have one that is just for the camper, complete with auto retractable cord. Thank you very much and yes, a hair dryer should be a fixture on the list. Not for me tho, I am on the other side of the spectrum when it comes to hair. They burn my male pattern bald spots so I stay away from them too. Indeed...I was a bit surprised that they don't have them in the comfort stations tho. Good point on it being a guaranteed trip...I will probably build it into
  18. The wife reminded me last night that I left something out of the report from the first day, and it was a major major thing that I left out. She forgot her hair dryer :o Apparently this is as big of a deal as forgetting the camper when you have 3 females in the house. Remember the guy/hero at the gate? We asked him if there were any of these on site to purchase or "borrow". I thought maybe the cabins had them. They do not. Walmart did. They also had an extra hose and some really cheap and cool disney things that we bought for grandmother and papaw.
  19. That is one bad a%$ nickname Yea, she even went with the tongue out...very ladylike Thank you. Hope to get more in today Just got back from WWW? Very very jealous and thank you for the compliment. I have heard a few people that use hitch extenders as well and they seem to work. If I didn't have the Husky hitch then I would need one. Thank you
  20. You may want to go check one out as soon as you get there. They go fast.
  21. Thank you. RNE really doesn't get the credit it deserves does it? You must work at it daily in the south to keep your iron sharp. Thanks DIT. I'm not sure about you but I definitely outkicked my coverage. And what Ragland doesn't fix, the liquor booth outside of Ragland sure will. "And it's no nay never (clap clap clap clap)" Thank you and yes, the first aid stations are the best. The lady at HS really hooked me up with everything i needed for the rest of the trip which saved me a walmart trip!
  22. I can't tell you enough how much I love these pics. Thank you for posting.
  23. I have now seen way too many clips on this movie on youtube to not see the movie...we are looking forward to it. Correct, We really got lucky with the site on the 600 loop. I took some pics and there are only 3-4 sites that I like in that loop, just based on shade. But the location is really good for us. 619,622, 624 are all shaded and really close to the bridge. I didn't realize how non shady the loop was until we got there.
