I vote for the latter. I'm glad to see this. We had a hell of a time getting reservations when we went in '10, probably because of people like this.

I heard them say "tart." Everything else was just a blur.

I don't have covers on the tires, but I do need to get one for the spare on the rear bumper. When in storage, the TT is parked between two other units, so there is little to no direct sunlight on them, and they are parked on 2x10's on grass and gravel. The spare gets full sunlight for part of the day, I just never got a cover for it.

Nice hotel room, for sure, but they DO need to get rid of that trash on the dresser before checking you in as a new guest.

Now that's a beautiful setup, but you really should have brought it back through here. I even swept off the driveway to give you a parking spot. :D I'll forgive you if we can find a place to meet in the middle and drink around the campfire. We might even get some more Fiends into it, provided they don't all move out of the midwest before next summer.

I'm going to sue myself for being such an ass all the time and forcing myself to be in a hostile and stressful living environment. I plan to take myself for both things I own. Then I'll appeal it and run it out forever. That'll show me, huh?

That is Disney's main business principle, and it works well for them.

What she said. Maybe the aged fleet is now down by one more bus.

Even more amazing to me is to look at the land now, that was flooded so badly all summer. A campground that we enjoy, with the water so high that you couldn't see the tops of the playground equipment, and only part of the comfort station roof. Right now it looks like a barren wasteland that never had any life. North of Omaha, along I-29, the river flooded several miles to the east of the actual river channel. The Interstate was closed there for months. It's open now, and they had to rebuild several miles of it. The trees are all dead along the highway, and they are starting to remove them. Wee

Just don't bring the water back with you this time. :rofl3: From what I read, the factors that created last year's floods are not (so far) in place this year. I hope that means the river will stay IN the river next summer.

Holy frap. You were a couple miles away form me and we didn't even know it! I wish I could have known you when you were here before. I would have had a camping back-up for you and you would have been able to make the zoo. The Omaha zoo is a no-miss site for a trip, that's for sure. Besides, I could have been sitting around a campfire, drinking with a fellow Fiend. Oh well, now we know each other for the next trip through.

The flooding that was so devastating this year didn't come from Nebraska. Record snowfalls in Montana and Idaho created high snow levels in the mouintains to the northwest. When Spring came in it brought a lot of rain, which turned a normally steady snow melt (of a record amount of snow) into a record setting dumping of water. That overfilled rivers and reservoirs, flooding a lot of river territory in Nebrsaka and both Dakotas. We probably never really know the true extent and cost of the damage.

I would love to be a working full-timer, but I have a house full of homebodies. Oh well, I'll just have to live through your reports.

Isn't that how you ended up with 4 kids? Just trying to keep you safe, is all.

I don't know if this has been suggested or not, but here is an excellent resource for anyone planning to go full-time. There is much more to the Escapees than the forum, and you don't have to be an Escapee member to join the forum. They have a vast wealth of information, not to mention they make a good support group. http://www.rvnetwork.com/

What the hell was she thinking? She must have had some premonitions about the girls with beautiful smiles that you could have.

For another year, anyway, until Anna hits her growth spurt.

"Turkeys At The Fort" Sounds like a ff.net GG trip report.

That has to be one of the sweetest and most heart-melting smiles ever to wrap a Daddy around it's little finger.

That's why there are no windows on the back of the bus, so the driver has more privacy. "Don't worry, folks. I'm just checking the...uh...brake lights. Yeah, that's it."

I would hit the road and do this in a minute. My line of work can be done via phone and computer, and can be done anywhere. My wife, on the other hand would never consider it. She never grew up camping, never traveled anywhere, and doesn't see it as anyhting but an expensive hobby. She tolerates it, but doesn't relish it. Oh well, guess we'll still be here next year.

I loved the video, and even enjoyed the GAG description. Keep it coming!

Sometimes I use deodorant in the morning.

Hot dang, another Dave report. Bring it on!

Just for you, Dave: http://uncrate.com/s...bacon-moon-pie/
