    As the old saying goes isn't that the pot calling the kettle black. I tried to watch it but decided best to go watch a train wreck instead

    As much as we like Disney we were getting a bit annoyed on having to book almost everything well before we got there as by the time we got there things or just what we wanted to do could change We would prefer the old paper fast passes even if we had to hustle early to try to get what we wanted then add on as we could. I am even at the point where selling our DVC would not bother me at all.

    My oldest son is a HUGE Yeti fan ( coolers of course ) and he thinks this is the greatest idea, he has a whole collection of Yeti products to the level of what I would say obsessed, he is lucky that most of the times he either gets them at 50% off ( Pro deals ) or wins them thru a raffle site. I won't complain he gave me one for my birthday one year and was even filled with Bison meat.

    It all depends on which way you go. We live in De and just came up from there in August, took 40 out of Tn to 81 then up 81 to Winchester Va then 7 to 340 to 70. Most GPS or map services want to route you thru 66 thru DC I choose to avoid that. Yes there are mountains on 81 but really nothing to worry about, gentle climbs, to me more like rolling hills. Now in November I would keep a watch on the weather, we did it in a car mid November last year with no issues. If you want info on stop over spots let me know.

    Starting to sound like it's going to be "refurbish all (or at least a bunch) of the things" time for a while.  Makes sense to do it while crowds are low and before the 50th next year.

    Sound great and thanks for the update, sounds like carrying extra mask might be a option at least to switch off if they get to damp

    Obviously you feel strongly about this situation as an anti-mask and getting life back to normal side.
    And others feel just as strongly supporting the wearing of a mask and erring on the side of caution.
    Carrying this thread on without it being directly related to Disney isn't going to do anyone any good and end up causing hurt feelings.
    If Disney says masks on and someone doesn't want to wear one, then they don't have to go. 
    Same as people saying that Disney is too $$$, if you don't want to pay don't go.
    And Disney will need to enforce their rules (whatever they decide on).

    When we go if just the wife and I we still get a 1 bedroom, if the boys join us we do the 2 bedroom ( like the extra space ) Once we were going with camping friends and their 2 girls so we offered to try for a Grand Villa ( 3 bedroom ) but after really looking into it, it was actually cheaper to get two 2 bedroom units plus I also felt the separation time might be needed, then they said can we bring the dog??? So we brought the campers which was the original plan

    Oh Reddit... a constant source of entertainment and open-mouthed head shaking.
    You can betcha bottom dollar that she's not the only one that's going to try something like this with Disney, or any other company they feel "wronged" by in all this. All the other chaos aside, I feel badly in advance for the CM's that are going to have to deal with people like this when things start to reopen (if they haven't already).
    What are the odds this woman is standing in a Costco right this minute hurling curses at a poor employee who is trying desperately to stay 6' away from her, demanding that they provide her with a free state-of-the-art gaming system, 72" HD TV and a month's supply of their best snacks to make up for the "trauma" caused to her precious snowflakes for not having their usual cushy toilet paper in stock.

    re: tire changing, funny story...
    One of my most memorable childhood family vacation stories is the time my parents rented a MH to take us 3 kids and my grandparents to FL. Somewhere in NC with Mom driving, we blew a tire.  It was an inside tire and Mom drove a school bus for a bunch of years, so that part was really no big deal.  She got us safely to the side of the road, we flagged someone down (this is pre-cell phones) so my dad could get to the nearest pay phone to call a tow truck.  A van full of people pulled over with an a/c unit out the side and a big recliner in the back.  (My sister and I still joke that we never thought we'd see dad again)
    It eventually took 3 trucks to change the tire... the first one they sent was too small.  The second one got stuck in the soft shoulder.  The third one came, pulled the 2nd one out and changed the time quickly and easily.
    Running family joke is "how many tow trucks does it take to change a tire in NC?"

    As far as the tp holder when we would go to shows I would always go into the bathrooms close the door and actually sit on the toilet to see if I fit, meaning do my legs hit anything, is it a right or left hand reach for tp and will even stand in the shower to see if I can stand straight up without hitting my head. You should have seen the lady's face when she opened the door and I yelled OCCUPIED!!!!
