Coming from Central Il we take 55 to 4 to 64 to 57 to 24 to 75. Definitely get past Atlanta before stopping. We usually hit it at night and go through downtown. The bypass is just as busy and about 45 minutes longer. We have a motorhome so we usually use truck stops or rest areas to sleep. And yes the police are always horrible in Atlanta.

Best: The family camping together and relaxing.
Worst: The 19 hour drive home and price.

Thank you. Sitting here jealous of everyone who got to go camping this weekend.

Congratulations and great job!

A colleague of mine returned to work today from running the Disney marathon for the first time. She was so impressed by how organized everything was and the amount of people participating. When I told her that I knew of somone running with a bike she asked me to pass this on to you. When she was hot and tired and wondering how she would finish, she would see one of you guys on the bikes and you would give her the inspiration to push through it. You guys were going through alot more than she was and still participating. When I told her you were a disabled vet she wanted me to thank for your service. So Ed you were an inspiration to someone in Central IL.

We really liked 1439, to the left of the comfort station when you're standing in front of it. Go out the back of the site and you're right there. We couldn't hear the movie while in the camper. Nice large site.

We miss the sundae of the day at the meadows.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you for the birthday wishes. I prefer to think of it as another year closer to retirement!

We stay overnight in truck stops and rest areas in our MH, but we also don't leave home without our 2 friends Smith and Wesson.

We bought 10 day park hopper tickets about 5 years ago with the waterparks and more and non expiring options. We still have 3 days left on each of our tickets. When we go to the Fort we usually spend 10 days and only 2 days at the parks. Park hopping is a nice option. It was a ton of money up front, but the way the prices have increased well worth it. Our granddaughter is now 13, (first trip when she was 1) and now prefers more Fort time. After a few trips (trust me this will not be your only trip) you will have your favorite things to do and being able to park hop gives you that freedom.

But yeah FW is around $90/night...way more than I would ever spend anywhere else but it's the kind of thing that in my eyes right now this is a one time deal. Yes I know everyone here is hooked lol....who knows maybe I will get that bug.
Famous last words! :rofl2:

When we take our 2 Shitzu's camping we leave them loose in the motorhome with toys. They are use to being home during the day by themselves so it's not a problem.

We will be there 12/21 to 1/3 and I am so ready!

My first trip was in 1990 and my DH was in 1974. We have gone every year since 1990 except for 2 times. We started with our son and a friend of his and now it's the son, wife and granddaughter. When we mention going to the Fort they are right there ready to go. They said they don't care how old they get if we're going they are too. We missed last year because of dh knee surgery so we are really looking forward to our 1st Christmas at the Fort.

That is awesome. We've had a neighborhood cat for a few years but she never had babies. Then we noticed she was getting really fat and found that all the neighbors were feeding her. Our next door neighbor finally took her in. My hubby, son and granddaughter are all allergic to cats, plus we have 2 dogs who spend all there time barking at her.

I got sick once on a cruise and they had me eating green apples and crackers and it actually worked. The cook and the room steward loaded us up on them. I was sick of green apples but i sure did feel better.

Wow Lou you are very special to do this for a stray animal. Most people would look the other way. :heartsmiley:

Love your report. Been to the San Diego zoo (it was the best zoo I've ever been to) and the Coronado Hotel. Couldn't afford to stay there either. Bought a drink and enjoyed the beach. I feel like i'm running trying to keep up with you two! Love the pics.

I live in central IL and have friends who have a house in Cape Coral. Her hubby is thinking of heading down 1st thing tomorrow morning to hurricane proof their house. His wife and I think he's totally nuts. We live through tornadoes and he thinks it won't be any worse than that. Will he even be able to make is there?
