How Many Miles To The Fort ?

[homebrew2]

Im about 650 miles...its oly about a 10 hr drive that we have made once a year...we were going to start doing it twice a year...once for the parks, and once just for camping at the fort...but gas may not allow us to do that after this year.

Now that is the wrong attitude!!!!!!!!!! Just cut back on useless luxuries
like booze for the wife, food, clothing,ect and you'll be able to
afford the gas.

BTW: Around 1100...was at WDW three times last year, once at POP, once in
cabins, and once camping.

Will only go once this year.....but have ressies for 22 days

Unlucky SEVENS for us (too far away) 777 miles

Hey,it won't be long now!!! Think of us when your there,,naaa don't do that , just have a blast !

 

[Memph1s]

88 for us

 

[breick]

1230 for us. We go almost every summer for 3-4 weeks and sometimes at Christmas.

As my "location" says~721 miles! we're in VA. I'm still trying to figure out how to move to Orlando!

Ami- We have a LOT of houses for sale down here!! No jobs, but plenty of houses!!

25 miles for me. We (used to) camp once every two months or more until DH became one of the unemployed statistics. Now, we settle for taking our bikes over & just riding around FtW when we can.

It sucks to pay for a MH & not be able to afford to use it. On the other side of that coin, at least for now, we can still afford to pay for it.

At least you can get to the fort and back for about $20 bucks in fuel. I cant see the fort for less then $800 in fuel.

367 miles.... and we'll be there next on Memorial Day weekend. Yes, we're prolly nuts.

This year will be "only" 965 miles - and we leave next Friday..! Usually we leave home (just outside of Dayton, OH), visit family in SE Ohio, then pick up 77 down to 95. No family visit this year, so we are heading straight down 75..!

Over mine, too, I'm afraid.

We are approximately 1350 miles from my driveway to FtW, and although we've never driven (yet), I've been told it will take us about 20-24 hours.
Will find out in April of '09, as that's the next trip planned

you must be real close by.
I am at 1360 miles, and the gps told me the same time frame,...well wrong again.
it took about 26 hours at max speed and $1500.00 for fuel, that was at around $3.50 a gallon.
now diesel is around $4.20 a gallon, hope it drops some before we go back in the fall.

Dang!! Adding 6 more hours!? I wouldn't mind an additional 1 or 2, but SIX??? Are you trying to make me cry? lol

Google Map says almost 1900 miles. We only go once a year at Christmas time and stay for three weeks. Worth every one of those 30 plus hours IMHO.

 

[Rhonda]

We used to stay more often, when we lived 1500 miles away (in Minnesota)! But, now that we live about 120 miles away (Fort Myers) we don't go for long trips anymore. We usually hop up for a long weekend, and stay at another resort. But, we always spend a day hanging around the Fort. We only camp about once a year now.

so far Boomer1 your winning.

St John (home of Moosehead)? How do you come down? The last time I drove down was just over 1300 miles in 1995 and I'd rather poke my eye with a pencil than do that again! We fly now!

 

[2goofycampers]

Still 650 for us. How about you?

 

[jeepfreak]

1458 from Hanover Ma.

 

[CDNCruiser]

1,410 miles for us!

 

[North7]

I'm a little more than 1 hour north of CDNCruiser, so for us, it's 1,463 miles... and well worth it

953 miles and 15 hr
