Amen!It has been rather slow on this forum now that warmer weather abounds (despite the rain for many ). In resort "news," I was just on another thread where an owner was bemoaning the fact he couldn't book anything but a 1BR @ SSR for the week prior to Thanksgiving--a mere five months out. As many of us pointed out, the new DVC paradigm is you better book at 11 months to be sure regardless the time of year and especially during the two cheapest seasons. He had used a couple of crowd calendars and saw where this time was a relatively slow one and was shocked to find almost nothing. As pointed out to the poster, crowd and DVC calendars are two wholly different issues.

I saw that Sleepy! I'm always amazed when people pop up saying they've had no problem booking during the Oct-Dec timeframe up until this year. When we bought more than a decade ago and closed on our resale and were looking to book something in mid-Dec 5 1/2-6 months out we had to go with a split stay.
For my news to add - I just read the Liberty Inn in Epcot is closing July 8th and will reopen later as a Smokehouse menu with craft beers and such on tap. Sounds pretty much like what they do at the food booth just outside it for all the festivals.
I think I have to give the concept a thumbs up and hope it's well executed.
DizniDi & I have also never eaten at Liberty Inn, yet we never miss the opportunity to visit and enjoy the Voices of Liberty! We are aware that it is there, but somehow we have never heard its call to come on in and enjoy the fare. We do however never miss the opportunity to sit and relax in the garden at Rose & Crown. I love the fact that it appears to those "one time visitors" that it is private seating for the restaurant. We have NEVER experienced a time when we could not find a table. Shhhhhhhh . . . don't let anyone know!
Hey Folks!
Been MIA on the Dis for a few days, though I have been looking in time to time to see what's going on with y'all
Its been crazy busy at work since early spring, and no slow up in sight for awhile. Sells at the local retirement community we do renovations have been sky rocketing! So, other than Sunday, Captain D and I have been going wide open, 6 days, early AM til late PM. Today, we have things to do, but going to take it easy just to catch our breath.
Just know, though Im not here as often as I would like, I still think of you folks often, and long for the days to be back as a regular
