BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I'm sure you all are sick of hearing me say it, but I'm soooooooooo far behind on TRs!!I really am trying to get caught up slowly but surely and finally got to this one.EXCELLENT JOB YC!Love the mug theme, love how the pre-TR turned into the TR, love all the great pics, glad your son's arm is ok - that looks like it could have been a lot worse, love that you got to meet a bunch of Fiends, and especially love that you found us here and have jumped in with both feet and shared your experiences with us in this TERRIRIC TR.What you said about "the past" is so true. And what others have said about Fiends being much more than random posts on a message board is true as well.FORT FIENDS ROCK!And so does this trip report. :bravo:P.S. If you need proof of that... this (so far) 9 page trip report by a "newbie" (well, maybe you were when you started, but you aren't now!) already has nearly 3000 views! :studsmatta-smiley: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caveat lector 181 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Totally agree with squirrel sentiment. The $&@€ things chewed through several strands of my led Christmas lights over on the 1600 loop. I did everything possible to give my dog an advantage to hunt one down.Kenny (of tee time fame) once told me that he often finds his stolen carts abandoned on property somewhere. It's not like they can drive them too far off property. Your pic of 609 was great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have alot of reading to do. I didn't realize how much it takes to write a trip report. I know see why there aren't too many "live" TRs. I can't wait to have time to read all the others. Hope we get the opportunity to meet soon.YC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Your pic of 609 was great!Caveat Lector,Thanks for reading and responding!I understand squirrels chewing on things and finding their way into openings, but how did that little tree rat "know" to chew that bungee to gain access to the camper?It is a little scary to me, almost like the Planet of the Apes, the squirrels are getting smarter than us!Somebody had to have a good time in that cart and is having a good time telling the story!

YENSIDCAMPER 66 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Here and in future posts will be just a few of the shots that were our favorites from each day of our trip and few of the YC crew! For TnBob's enjoyment it will be mostly pictures little commentary.Traveling DayI love the Easter Mickey reflection in this shot, it was unintentional but neat all the same.Just in time! I was not stopping till we hit the Fort. Glad there wasn't a line at Check in!Home Sweet Home and look the sun came out just as we had finished the setup! I love the Fort.This was a nice ending to a long day of traveling thanks to traffic and the rain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YENSIDCAMPER 66 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I love how even in the rain, coming upon those signs is a wonderful sight!We actually started taking pictuers of signs on the Florida Turnpike but this report is too long already.The signs always get our blood pumping!Great pictures!!Thanks, just trying to share some of the ones we didn't have time to share during the trip.Cuttin' it a little close with the gas weren't ya? :rofl2: Talk about riding on fumes!When I am trying to get to the Fort nothng stops me. Ask the boys, I threatend to make them pee in a bottle; once we hit the Turnpike there is no stopping.Truthfully we usually have about 2 gallons of gas left at this point. The guage hasn't been the same since the squirrels chewed on our fuel and electrical lines. See the earlier posts. Those squirrells haunt us forever now.Great report!! :bravo:Thanks T.J. Sorry we didn't get to meet durin the Easter week when you dropped by the Fort.A pre-trip and now a TR. I might have to read this one. Nah, just kidding.Good thing, I might get nervous if a Fiend of your stature was reading along.By the way we never miss Fantasmic when at HS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
