RE: Summering in the North
Estes Park, Colorado. Beautiful, cool, and great hiking. Close to Loveland, Boulder, and Denver if you need more activity.

RE: Thought you might enjoy
What a great post. My wife and I are in Estes Park, Co., right now. We got here on Monday and will be here to next Monday. We just love this place. You wouldn't believe all the Elk that are in town right now. A lot of calves have been born in town and around the golf course. What a great site to see. We were up at the Alpine Center yesterday and you also wouldn't believe all the snow up there yet. We have been to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National park quite a few times and have never seen this much snow still at the Alpine center. The Old Fall River Road won't be open until mid July. Anyway, anyone that has never been here, you have to put it on your list.

RE: Thinking Ahead - Colorado
Rocky Mountain National Park is a must see. Be sure and drive the "Old Fall River Road" up to the Alpine visitors center. The drive, however, is not for those who don't like steep grades and fantastic views. It is a "one way", dirt road to the top of the mountain range. The town of Estes Park, which is at the east entrance to the park, is a great place to also spend some time. As a matter of fact, my wife and I are leaving today to spend a couple of weeks out in Colorado, and one of those weeks will be in Estes Park. We love it there.

RE: Moore OK Tornado dog found during news interview
It was even harder for me to watch since my wife and I have a black schnauzer just like it.

RE: Jellystone RV Resort Nashville
Have stayed there many times. You won't be disappointed. I don't have any pictures for you, but there really isn't a bad site anywhere in the park.

RE: Midwest SNOW Storm
We left Tropical Palms in Florida last Wednesday with the hope of being home by Easter. Thank goodness we decided to stop at the Escapees Park in Gulf Shores. Will hold up here until the weather warms up in Wisconsin.

RE: Two questions for Snowbirds...
Speaking of geese, have you ever noticed that when geese fly (either north or south), they always seem to fly in a V formation? One of the legs of this V formation always seems to be longer than the other. Any idea why this is? Answer - there are more geese on that side. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

RE: De-Nile??
Yes, the same thing is happening in Florida. Parks that use to be very near full several years ago at this time of the year, now have alot of empty spots. My wife and I took a road trip around the west coast of Florida a week ago and looked at several RV parks for future ref. and found alot of room in every park we stopped at.

RE: Costs of Snowbirding
Like Clutch1 stated, "It depends on what you are looking for". Come to Tropical Palms in Florida (near Disney)and you will pay $4400 for 4 months (of course that includes electric), but it is location, location, location. We love it here.

RE: Florida in 2 weeks
We are at Tropical Palms near Disney, and right now the place is packed for the New Years weekend. I'm sure that come Wednesday, there will be plenty of room for anyone looking for a nice place to spend the winter. Come on down.

RE: Power surge when plugged into 110 - outlets now dead.
Every outdoor outlet (garage, porch, side of house, etc.) that I ever came across was attached to a GFCI somewhere. We sold our home several years ago when we retired and now maintain an apt. up north when we aren't traveling, and the outlets in the garage and on the porch are tied to a GFCI in one of the bathrooms. I agree with the others, a GFCI is tripped somewhere.

RE: Florida in January
We did the same thing a few years ago, before the economy crashed, and never had a problem finding a site. Since the economy crashed, you should certainly not have a problem. RV parks that use to be full don't even come close to full now.

RE: Florida RV Parks, Walking Distance of Restaurants Etc?
We winter at Tropical Palms RV Resort near Disney World. The resort is on Hwy 192 about 2 miles east of I-4. It is right behind Old Town (a tourist attraction)and there are alot of restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping areas well within walking distance. The resort is very nice and has alot to do.
The resort property is also right next door to the town of Celebration, which is another wonderful place to visit (good restaurants and shopping). The resort is about 70 miles from Tampa and is a easy drive (interstate all the way). We love it here because of all the things to do in the area.

RE: Dis.World Ft. Wilderness,Pet Site?
Besides having alot of pet loops now, they also have a large, fenced, pet run. Our dog practically drags me to the pet park. She knows how to get there no matter what loop they put us in. Your dog(s) will love it.

storing car over winter
We're leaving one of our cars in the garage this winter while we head south for 5 months. Should I leave the battery in the car or what do most of you do?
