What does driving 2858 miles get you?

Well what does driving almost 3k miles in 5 days get you? For those of us in Washington State that gets you a trip to Fort Wilderness in October. The coach did great along the way averaged 8.5 miles per gallon. Now for 12 days of Disney Magic. Got the site all decorated, I did under estimate the Clark Griswold factor here. Here are some pics not the best but you get the idea.

We used to take the Grandkids every year and learned all the parks pretty well. Enjoy, it truly is a fun place

We stayed in quite a few of the resorts over the years and usually used the dining packages

Crowds should be limited which will be very nice

Have a great time. What is your route home? Hopefully you have traction device for ride home. We got snow on the passes this week and a good snowfall in Idaho and CO.

Washington State is that a College or a Prison? I know the State of Washington is location in the Great NW. If I would send you a letter, is your address; City, Washington State, ZIP; City, Washington, ZIP.

I know you are wanting to differentiate from the Washington Distraction of Corruption.

I feel you should stick to WASHINGTON and don't let the DC group force into a name change that appears your in a Sate Prison. They are DC.

Clay just an Old man's opinion

Ha yes from the best side! Spokane. The route back is different. Coming down through SD and then down through Missouri. Way back will just take the 10 through Texas. Then depending on the weather will cut up through Colorado. Or if it’s sucks then continue to the 15 and if it’s still bad then the coast. Hoping for the best.

Nice! We camped at Ft Wilderness 4 years ago and loved it. We also have reservations for January 16-22, but not sure if we'll actually be able to go or not.


I was in FL for work in early Sept, and I had some military park hopper tickets that were still valid, so I took some extra days and visited the Disney parks. It was a great time to go. The wait times for nearly everything were 5-10 minutes. Even the super popular attractions only had about a 30 min. wait. However, now that the 50th anniversary celebration has started I have seen that the crowds have been bad, especially in the Magic Kingdom.


Anyway, have a magical stay!
