    Sad News about Rich Hyams

    Those palmetto bugs are big. I've had to evict one from my room on two occasions. Hope they enjoyed their tour of the septic system.

    Beer at HH

    It's about 1.25 miles from the resort to the beach house. You can drive and there is usually plenty of parking. You can also walk or bike there. The resort has shuttle service on request. We will be going in April also. Hope the bar at the beach house will be open.

    BCV Mousepad

    The DVC used to have lots of neat promotional items that were hard to get. When they were closing down the sales office at HHI, my sister had made friends with one of the young ladies who worked there. She inquired about getting a mouse pad, but was not able to get one. However she was given...

    Kind words about your guide, especially Byron

    Byron has always been great. Never any pressure and always returns calls. He handled our original contract and 3 add on's and was a great gentleman.

    Hilton Head Resort

    I own at HHI and love it. I cannot understand the complaints about there being no restaurant. A very short walk over the bridge takes you to several nice restaurant. Also I was told that not having a restaurant on property was a condition of approval. They could improve on the existing snack...

    Who thinks Saratoga Springs is overpriced at $95?

    It is only overpriced if no one buys it. In my area I thought the price of houses were way overpriced, yet there are people bidding against each other to buy them. Time will tell.

    Trip "on hold"

    Hope the stone is small and can be passed quickly. I know how painful those suckers can be, I had to cancel a trip to the Indy 500 one year because of a kidney stone. Wishing you recover quickly and get that trip in.

    If you bought DVC at $65 or less, are you feeling

    We bought most of our points at less than $65.00. I just took my first trip to OKW since I retired, and it was the best yet. Great to know that you don't have to go back to work after comming back from vacation. So, NO, selling is not a consideration at this point. Just looking forward to going...

    Parking at DVC resorts

    You can park free at any DVC resort. You can use the self park, which is usually a bit of a walk, or you can valet park. If you show your DVC card you can valet park for free although a tip is normally given.

    Okay, now that we have seen it....

    As an owner at OKW who always stays there and never uses the pools, I could care less about the slide. I have always said that if DVC wanted a slide at OKW, it would be put in regardless of opinion polls. While I cannot understand the obsession some people have regarding slides, to each their...

    Got a call from WDW Executive Offices concerning my email to them

    I think that as the DVC membership continues to grow, it will become impossible to grant requests other than smoking/non-smoking. Even that may not always be possible. Speaking of which, I was surprised to read that someone at OKW said they do not have the ozone machine to purify the room...
