Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I guess my Fort days are over. I made the mistake of showing this to INC. She is seriously freaked out by bats and doesn't want to go back.She hasn't noticed the two smaller houses over by the cabins (2100 loop)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LONE-STAR 370 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 PICTORIAL UPDATE<br />Bat houseDam work, new spillway and control gate<br />Forget the bats that's a cabin with a lake view. It's the bats own DVC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Classact....Mike 17 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Nice. Thx for the pics. I guess bats aren't freaked out by the sound of fireworks, judging my the location of the house. So ....we can look forward to future insect-free nights at the fort. Right?!

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 BHBR (Bat House Bragging Rights) go to Grumpy/Dave! Good photos. What a dam mess. That is a BABH (Big A** Bat House). My guess is that the fence and gate will stay. They don't want guests messing with the BABH. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 They dont want guests making guano bowls so i bet the fence stays. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 They dont want guests making guano bowls so i bet the fence stays. Guano bowls? What's that? I figured it might be something hippie related, so I Googled it. I still don't know. I know guano is bat poop. But, I don't know what a guano bowl is. As best I can tell it's a reference to something tin the Ace Ventura movie? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Dam(n) things are looking pretty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Looking good. I assume the white paint on the spillway walls is some kind of primer/sealant. White isn't the best color to use where there's going to be flying bat byproducts. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 The dam work must be almost complete, they are removing the pillings and the final color must be grey. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Looking good. The water level in the canal is the highest I've seen it in a while. Probably won't be that way for long, though. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 The bats are getting a roof and the dam seems to be working as designed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 Thanks for the new photos, Grumpy. The bat house looks good. Have you heard of any plans they have for getting bats to move in? I thought Bear Rock would be in more water, but at least he's got his feet wet. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 The bat house looks good. Have you heard of any plans they have for getting bats to move in? Who needs plans. It's Disney. They are probably charging $150/night and still the place will be jam packed with bats. Avatab.... Steve 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
