Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Parking ramp is common terminology in the upper Midwest according to Wikipedia. Regardless, I think I'm smart enough and intuitive enough to be able to figure out what the term means, unlike you two. Perhaps the FAIL is on the part of the New Jersey public school system. Since when are you from the upper Midwest? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WalkerFiend 22 Posted June 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Today they are dumping in lots of sand and packtng it down. The kids loved watching the big machines working. Looks like that entire space that separated The Pioneer Hall cart parking area from the Carrige ride (?) will be Cart parking when they are done. No Starbucks - yet.

CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Isn't the ramp the thing you drive up, YES to get the deck that you park on, which is in the multi-level garage ? Multi-level garage doesn't compute. A garage is one level. A parking deck is multiple levels. And are you one of those people that call soda, pop? Soda, pop, it's all Coke here. No matter the brand.

WalkerFiend 22 Posted June 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 And, noticed that they are not exactly working as if they have any particular schedule to meet either. LOL. I guess slow and steady wins the race. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 How many of the outlets are really needed? Our GC will run for days without charging, so just running around the Fort does not make us need an outlet until we get back to our site. And score points for gwen. It's COKE, not soda or pop. Where did those terms come from anyway? Nor ranting, just curious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The battery indicator never has shown anything except fully charged. But we were told that we have one of their newer carts. Last year the Cast Member that gave us the cart went out of his way to tell us to plug it in whenever we could do so.So, not sure. I'm thinking that not all carts are alike in age or battery condition/capacity... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can say, if you happen to find yourself in a position where you need to charge away from your site... The likelihood of finding a plug you can use is going to be pretty low when this place is busy.

Nor ranting, just curious.My bikes go forever w/o ever being charged.My legs need an occasional (well often) charge of beer to get me going thru more than 1 or 2 loops. About 3 to reach the settlement from the 1500 loop.Now my granddaughters can go a full day or looping on a single 32 oz charge of Mt Dew! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
