Enjoy!  Thanks Loretta!
 

Here ya go folks!
 

Thanks to Loretta and her wonderful daughter for getting this for me!  ♥️

Thanks to Shalynn (Loretta's daughter) for going over to the Fort and getting this for me!  She is such a doll!  
 

Thanks so Fort Wilderness Glampers for these pictures.  My normal sources did not come through this month.   

I actually agree with you about burnout.  Between work, social media posts for the side hustle and just life, I am really longing to get back to a forum.  Please know that I will be posting much more in the future here to drum up some of the lurkers and get more attention.  I do post almost daily on our FB pages and we have quite a following.  I sincerely hope they will come back here.

I was waiting for the bus yesterday and saw this sign talking about the FWRR.  Since I am a HUGE fan of the railroad, I had to snap up a picture.  I didn't see it when I was at the Fort in February.  I thought it was super cool.
 
 

As promised, here is the golf cart parade from the 4th.  Thank you to Mousesteps for the video.
 

I really wish I was still at the Fort, as there were actually still sites available.  I absolutely hated to leave right before the festivities.
However, I want to thank Xander Gonzalez, who is currently at the Fort for the holiday, for the information.  Here is his post on Facebook on a different group showing below.
I just bought the tire cover with the 50th logo for my jeep and the next business day, they change it all up. Grr.

I got this right off the presses today!  Enjoy

I have FINALLY found another source to get the rec calendars!  Hopefully this will be a source for quite some time.  
 

I would like to thank Michael Kimble from the Facebook group "I Love Camping at Disney's Fort Wilderness" for the pictures.  His information is most appreciated.  
 

These are also some of the best luxurious fifth wheel campers. 

Forest River Xlr 19hfs 2021 Winnebago Spyder 23fs Look at these two toy haulers. 

Honeywell Portable Multipurpose AC This is also a portable AC. I am using this one. 

I know that camping gatherings are on hold until all this junk is behind us, but I still wanted to thank each and every one of you for sticking around and keeping the "dream" alive of one day getting together again.  On this day, 10 years ago, a couple of minutes after midnight, this forum began.  (I then, 10 minutes later, was unceremoniously banned from Voldemort, lol)
We recently had our Wild Womenz Weekend 2021, with COVID restrictions of course, and it was one of the best evah!  Some of our regulars couldn't make it at the last minute, but we knew they were there in spirit.  
COVID has been especially hard on teachers and being one, I have never, ever, been so swamped in my life.  We all know that life gets in the way for all of us and for anyone who is still really hurting from COVID, you are in my prayers.  
As I enter the twilight years of my education career, I am stepping up our focus on social media for FortFiends and beyond.  We will be moving forward with an Instagram and Ticktok page for FortFiends and this year renewing our trademark and applying for a logo mark (I think that is how you say it?  TCD?  help me out here) for Snarky, our mascot.   You may see in the coming weeks a tiny change to the bottom of the website.  Chris and I are merging the three businesses into one LLC.  FortFiends will be a DBA of Snarky Enterprises, along with the other two companies.  Nothing that you are used to will change, except names.  This will make things much easier come each tax season.  I will be updating the store to include our logo for the year and take out old and dated things and freshen up the look, with SuperGeek's help of course.  
Chris and I appreciate each of you and treasure the people who help behind the scenes.  They help in ways most of you will never know, but count on to keep things moving along.   Over the years, we have had many ups and downs, but all in all, I would say that my most treasured friends are fiends.  Fiends are the type of friends that just pick up where they left off, now matter how long of a time apart.  I look forward so much to WWW each year that if I dare say I am too busy to go, Chris will physically push me out of the door.  Even the girls know I am a squirrel and get distracted and call to make sure I am on the road.  You just can't find people like that in the normal universe.  They are friends you hold dear to your heart.
I challenge each of you, myself included, to make yourself get out of the house and go camping this year if you have been in hiatus. If you haven't, I challenge you to go more.   I also challenge you to invite people to this forum to discuss and share the love of camping.  We have regulars, yes.  We always need more regulars!  I plan on going camping more to just get out of the house.  We keep going virtual school then in person, then virtual and so on.  It is nice for a change and I know if I need it, so do you.  
If and when the world gets back to some kind of normal, we will be planning a 10th anniversary grand gathering.  I have no clue where or when because...COVID.  I do however seem to think it needs to be somewhere a little more affordable than the current rates at Disney.  Some of the WWW womenz have suggested a couple of new RV parks that will be opening soon around the area.  I will be checking them out for upcoming events.  I do know that WWW is expanding (hopefully) to a twice a year event.  Honestly, that makes me giddy!  Maybe the men can start to have a weekend without the women????
Please give a shout out to Monique, who is our trusted and love logo makers of all things Snarky, who designed our anniversary logo again.  We could not survive without her.
Until we meet again in person
Jen (and Chris, aka SuperGeek)
