Fort Newbie Water Question
Grumpy and Grandma replied to Wrekless's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
That sounds like a previous occupant removed the "wye" connection that is used on most of the timers. -
TV Connections
Grumpy and Grandma replied to scotty4040's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
First of all: What part of OHIO? I don't think those converters are available for purchase, at least on the open market, since they are used by cable companies. I referenced them so people would know that the one they bought when the over the air switch was made won't work. -
The Other Fort: Another MD Camping Adventure
Grumpy and Grandma replied to MetalDad's topic in Trip Reports
I think many State, County and Municipal parks are "so called" dry. Having that rule in place makes it so much easier for the PoPo to remove anyone who gets obnoxious, loud or is causing problems after one too many. The violators have no way to argue that they didn't do something wrong -

TV Connections
Grumpy and Grandma replied to scotty4040's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I doubt it is a money issue, it probably has more to do with trying to get the WI-FI system in place as well as signal quality. -
TV Connections
Grumpy and Grandma replied to scotty4040's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Your old converter is for "off air" signals. That is a totally different frequency than what is sent over cable. -

IIRC they don't run the card for the deposit it is just a hold. -

The off air converters won't work, you need a special box to convert the cable digital signal to analog. You need one of these. http://www.qamtuner.com/ -
Make Camping Easy Rental

You know he will now be "IMPOSSIBLE" to live with at the FORT. :rofl3: -
Camping off of I-75?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to travlinohio's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I think she means the Cleveland TN KOA. What was your impression? Last time we stayed there it seemed very run down! We prefer Lookout MTN, Chattanooga South. -
Disney let's you even bring your own "booze" on board it just has to be in a carry-on. Definitely send Roz an "E" mail. She handled the FIENDS DREAM CRUISE for the group.

WAR Driving Fort Style
Grumpy and Grandma replied to devores's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I talked to one of the Systems/CATV guys when we were there in OCT. He said they are having trouble getting good coverage because of all the trees/foilage etc (it does block WIFI) No matter how they place the antennas some people would not get a good signal, but they are trying to come up with a solution. -
Camping off of I-75?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to travlinohio's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Eagles Roost, also a KOA at that exit as well. Also CG's at Jennings and Lake City. -
Camping off of I-75?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to travlinohio's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
There are numerous places within a couple hours drive of the FORT. Several CG's in Ocala. The KOA in Wildwood is under new ownership. It was called Wildwood Campground for about a year.(lost the franchise) Not sure how it is with the new owners. -
Covering Travel Trailer roof
Grumpy and Grandma replied to mmfancipher's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Haven't covered a roof since 1977 when we bought our first TT and have never had a problem. As Gary said you can do damage with a loose tarp moving in the wind. -
As it says "Florida Rules of the Road" apply. Cars and or carts "DO NOT" have the right of way.when a bike is in front of them just as it would be on a road. The cart or car should pass the cyclist when it can be done safely. And as Carol said, "Speed limit in the loops is 3 mph". for cars, carts and RV's.
