Anytime I can spread the word about Reece's Rainbow, I will. If I can help just one more child find their forever family, I will. Spread the word about Reece's Rainbow, let everyone know about the work they do. If just one more child can be saved from a life in an institution, I will do whatever I can.

10th Wedding Anniversary...
mrstnbob replied to ~Kristina~'s topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Just pack the camper and go, when you come across something you think you would like to see, stop. Then repeat as much as you like. Go up the east coast and take in the sights. -

Funny Momoffive and MomofsixinSC both with ties to Allentown Pa. Maybe of we can get a GG at Knoebels (J&D campground) you both could make it. Have either of you been to Knoebels? -

I was born in Shamokin Pa, still have family there. Hubby and I both grew up in Hopewell Twp. Hubby is from Pennington and I was from Titusville, both just a hop, skip and jump from where Washington crossed the Delaware. -

mrstnbob replied to Lou...'s topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I am so ready for a Fort trip, but it will have to wait until July 4th. Thats ok because this trip our youngest granddaughter will be joining us for her first visit to WDW. She just turned 2 and LOVES Mickey Mouse. I can't wait to see her face when she sees Mickey in person for the first time. Here she is. -
J&D Campground/Knoebels/Elysburg, PA.
mrstnbob replied to Abagpiper5's topic in Pictures from other Campgrounds
If anyone is camping at J&D this year, look across the creek that runs past the campground. If you see a single campground on the other side of the creek, my cousins rent the space from the farmer who owns the property. We camped at that spot back in the mid 60's. I was born in Shamokin, Pa and still have alot of family members still there. Would love a GG at J&D and Knoebels, It's a great family amusement park with wonderful food and great prices. -
40ft friendly
mrstnbob replied to LI Happy Camper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
We stayed in the 600 loop over the 4th of July 2010, but we were in 635 I think. Lots of trees and the way the loop road runs it was very easy to get into. This was a very shaded spot and had lots of room. -
yes their homemade potato salad is really good, their cole slaw (sweet) is good also.

We used to pack the camper with all the food we would need for out stay at the Fort. Bob says he doesn't like to haul all that weight, so now we just pack enough food to get us to the Fort, then go shopping at Publix and get the rest.

Let's talk ice cream
mrstnbob replied to doodlebug....Cherie's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
how about a kitchen sink at Beaches & Cream -
I take ground round, then dice onions into little pieces, add some bread crumbs, generous portion of Montreal steak seasoning. mix well and form patties. Bob doesn't like things grilled on the grill so I have to fry them. While they are cooking I pour over a little A1 steak sauce. I prefer either provolone cheese or american, tomatoes and raw onion and mayo. Or some blue cheese chunks...or fried onions with a litt A1 sauce.

Packing List
mrstnbob replied to PureTcrazy...rita's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Bob made a list on the computer then prints it up when we need it. He checks everything off as it is placed in his staging area, then crosses it off as it goes out the door into the camper. He is anal, he has to be to make up for me being Adult ADD. He keeps me grounded, thank God, -
Standing water at the campsites
mrstnbob replied to Ghester's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
May and June are the worst months for yellow flies. I was bitten June of 2008 on my foot and my foot swelled so bad it hurt to walk. Then May/June of 2009 was really bad for yellow flies. I was bitten so bad, they became infected I felt so sick and ran a fever. I went to the urgent care clinic and they gave me a shot of Rosephin (sp). I will NOT go to the Fort in May or June ever again. -
Best Loops at Fort Wilderness?
mrstnbob replied to Ghester's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
We like the new area of the 600 loop during the fall and winter months. We are close to the meadows so Bob can fish off the dock. During the summer months we prefer the opposite end of the 600 loop where there are lots of shade trees. The 700 loop would be our second choice. We have stayed in the 1200 loop also and found the sites to be quite large.
