Disney Price Hikes
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to Discamper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
If we don't willingly contribute to Lou's later years (which are now) he won't spike us, eat our pie, or abuse us either in person or in the Forum. So smile when you pay the increase...whenever it comes. :banghead: -
Bug Control
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to Brent... Just Brent's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
ThermaCell ad says it has a 15 inch by 15 inch protective zone. Is that a misprint. It also says that per Federal regulations it must be returned in its original packaging or special packaging obtained from the Post Office. What the heck is in that thing??? -
Shoes
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to momofmany...Christina's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
I wear my shoe inside and outside. We have two brooms and two vacuums, so occasional cleanup is no problem (for Judy). :rofl2: -
Many of the pictures are everyday things around WDW. I see them. I point out things to the kids. I marvel at some. But I rarely take pictures. Someday when my traveling days are past, I will regret not having pictures to remind me of the joys of Disney vacations. There's an incredible amount of photographic material there, with or without family or FrIENDS in the pictures. I will try to make amends this Christmas if we get there.

I Know We all Complain
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to Discamper's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Some of the previous poster noted the little things about Disney. I think some of TCD's trip reports could provide a lot of opportunity for new adventures, but be wary of some of Yuri's. I am also reminded of the Travels of the Puple Van back in another time and on another board. He posted some really obscure details most of us miss. -
The Carousel of Progress Cast
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to BradyBzLyn...Mo's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
One of my most favorite attractions. They stopped it twice last time we visited. The announcement said something about an outside intruder that had to be caught before we could continue. They never did explain what happened. It just started again. Of course I also like Small World, so what does THAT say?- 15 replies

I bought my last two off ebay. The older one was a lesson learned. It had a lot of hidden rust and it blew holes in two pistons on our first major trip. we drove back from NJ blowing smoke and stopping every 75 miles to add two quarts of oil. The second proved to be local and I was able to go inspect it before I placed a bid. We've had this one for about 9 years. Just do your homework. and protect yourself.

We installed a Red Dirt Devil central vac, but more often use a hand held Dust Buster mounted on a convenient corner wall in the bathroom. DW often sweeps the hard sections of floors when the rest of us are outside. We keep a small trash can in the bath and in the dining area, but more often use a large black garbage bag kept under the small table behind the passenger seat. We keep two laundry bags in the bathroom, usuallly in the shower...one for whites, one for colors. We use mostly paper products, foam plates. I refuse to remove my shoes going in or out, but we have carpet and a mat jus

Fort buses
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to h2odivers...Ray's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Also the smaller boats don't accommodate open strollers or wheelchairs. -
Fort buses
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to h2odivers...Ray's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Slight clarification. You catch the boat to the MK at the Marina. There are also smaller boats to GF and Cont .All other parks and DTD are by bus from the Outpost. There are three bus lines; yellow, orange, and purple, depending on what area you are in and where you want to go. -
Who's at the Fort ?
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to raca-roni's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Robert, We saw your sign last evening while we were looping, but all was dark. Hope you enjoy your stay. We're here for another week in 1216. Yes, being (or is it getting) spiked is the best. We haven't seen we3peas and we missed the Litchfields (no sign out). -
You mean these will not be loaners? :dass:

Robert, We'll be there during your stay. Maybe run into you there, and thanks for your service. As for how we got HERE, It was Other: an email from either Lou or Jen. Sorry, can't recall which. But it was in the first couple of days. I still admit to posting occasionally over there, but mostly on the DISabilities forum. I did not get flushed, but received a substantial block of points for referring someone over there to Donnie for his rentals. Look out Fort, we're almost on the way.

Thank you for all you do!
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to AuburnJen's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
My father and two uncles returned safely from WWII, a nephew from the first Gulf War. I am grateful for their service and safety. All vets have done so much to keep the rest of us safe. I worked for the DoD for 38 years so I was around many active duty personnel who were in some outlandish places often under austere conditions because that is where the need is/was. Thanks to all.. It's no longer Veteran's Day, but I choose to be thankful every day. -
Stacktester's Halloween Trip Report

Donnie, A nice sentiment at the close of your TR. Maybe see you in Dec/Jan. -
Where to line up at Bus Stops
Retired and Happy (Ken) replied to Retired and Happy (Ken)'s topic in Camping with DisAbilities
Thanks. At least now we'll know what to expect when we come in mid-December. Not only backpacks, but medical equipment and the Boss's excess in-park purchases.
