BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 I'm not sure if you can post directly to the FB page, but you should be able to comment on a post and include photos. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 I'm not sure if you can post directly to the FB page, but you should be able to comment on a post and include photos. :)I've never been able to start a post, or add a picture to the fiends FB page directly. But I have been able to add a comment to a current thread and I think I did add Halloween photos last year because there was already a comment thread started. I can't do any photos thru Imgur to this site using my Samsung phone or iPad. I can only use my laptop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Although there was just a new update, I should check again.

Littleolwoman.aka.Kristie 119 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Thanks to the Fiend on the screen. Shack looks great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swimmarz 72 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Nice job with the pics, and thanks for the heads up on the newish check in process Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 So what are we guessing here? Are they moving the guard shack to the left so that new arrivals can go straight, and returning guests will go through a new automated gate to the right and the two streams of traffic don't have to mix?

Doing that would make sense....... :rotfl6: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Are they moving the guard shack to the left so that new arrivals can go straight, and returning guests will go through a new automated gate to the right and the two streams of traffic don't have to mix?It does appear that is the case. The new shack is to the left of the returning guest lane. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swimmarz 72 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I had to look via google maps but i would agree with others, they have moved the shack to improve the flow it appears.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 So when I checked and they said my MB would get me in the restroom, and thru the returning guest gate. I asked about the bus gate at the end of the overflow and they said they won't work there.One day my daughter couldn't get thru the return guest gate, the MB didn't work and they had to manually open it. Next time she comes in she went to the bus gate, and said she barely had to get the MB near the reader to get the gate open. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I've had no problems with my MB working on the bus gate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Mark shared one more pic on our Facebook page that I didn't grab before I became computer-less for the weekend... Thanks again, Mark! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shoreline99 137 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Meh. Pretty ugly. Hope they do something to improve it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'm sure it will be clad in half logs or rough sawn boards like other structures at the Fort. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'm sure it will be clad in half logs or rough sawn boards like other structures at the Fort. I heard it's going to be covered in Frozen posters! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'm sure it will be clad in half logs or rough sawn boards like other structures at the Fort. Yup. And then they'll turn Brown Paint Guy loose on it. It will fit right in. And, my guess is that the original shack will come down. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Brown Paint Guy... now THAT's job security! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmaul 65 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Mark shared one more pic on our Facebook page that I didn't grab before I became computer-less for the weekend... Thanks again, Mark! They better bollard the crap out of it or install curbing 4' away or that roof overhang will be toast in a month. I like the update. It eliminates the criss-cross after and probably brings up-to-date technology (whether or not it works...). What's going on at main check-in? Is that to add another lane or replace the existing kiosk? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Can't tell 100%, but is that a weatherproof camera in the middle of those 4 red poles. Looks like its aimed at incoming vehicles license plates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Memphis 105 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 They had one at the old shack too. It was just better camouflaged by bushes. The new one right now looks they are afraid someone might steal their construction sign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
