A Long Weekend In The Rocky Mountains - Part 2 April 2012
bigdisneydaddy replied to Judy in Texas's topic in Trip Reports
I mistyped, it was Elk meadow, aptly named since we saw several wandering through the area while we were there. The first pic actually shows the spot we were in at that park. It was a nice place with great people running it, just a little more dusty than I would have liked but thats easily fixed. The office building was rumored to have been a brothel at one time before it was moved to the place it is now and there is a large covered grill that was built for Dan Blocker "Hoss" from Bonanza, supposedly there were plans for them to film some episodes in that area and he was planning on staying th -

Thanks for the trip report... LOL We may have someone on this next trip that has the same Gluten issues so thats good info for us. I think Disney does a great job with special requests. -

we stayed at Oak meadow, on the left just before you get to the visitors center entering RMNP. Very nice people and a decent park. they had a show on the weekend with a guy name "cowboy Brad" great local entertainer and a must see dinner show for the price of $25 per person (food was from a BBQ place just down the street, IIRC named Daves) -

Michigan to The Fort

We take US23 south into Ohio until it connects with I75 near Maumee, then go 75 the rest of the way. #1 towing will take you more than 4 hrs extra due to the slower speed required when towing, we are usually around 24 -25 hrs total depending on traffic and accidents. #2 we leave around 6 and stop about 18-20 hrs later in Perry GA IIRC exit 135 at a place right on the West side of the road across form the AG center, I think its snug harbor RV. Usually you can pull in without ressies late but we almost always make ressies and prepay the $30 #3 I go straight though Atlanta, I stay towards the m -

Unless they are going to start passing out pool towels I am going to need a clothesline. I have one of those rack type setups, I usually leave it at home because it doesnt dry very well. -

I need some info from a previous cruiser. Do the rooms on the ship have their own climate control similar to the resort rooms ? Up here in the North we like it cool, just curious. Thanks

Cheap Chinese Tires ......
bigdisneydaddy replied to bigdisneydaddy's topic in RV Repairs on the Road, at FW and Elsewhere
I have often wondered if people who buy the vehicles with the big wheels actually realize the cost whent hey go to replace them. Dodge did that for a while on their 1500 Rams with a 20" wheel, they are crazy expensive. -

just put 6 new Goodyears on a trailer at work and they were made in China. Very disappointed. I did read that Goodyear is making large investments in their US plants, hopefully that will mean jobs and production stay in the U.S. -
I fried up some fresh buffalo wings last trip that were very popular and my fried catfish is always a hit.

I cook up a lot of meat and grilled chicken and freeze it in quart containers for easy meals, our kids are spoiled food wise. We are big breakfast people and I have been known to make some awesome french toast.

1500/1600 Loop
bigdisneydaddy replied to BayLake Campers's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Some of their equipment is pretty old, may be an issue of not being able to get parts or it may not be worth fixing and cheaper to install new.
