Sleepy
Sorry your RF experience didn't pan out. I am in hopes that once the newness wears off, maybe they will be back on their game, but my doubts override my positive thoughts so far. You know, for all us ol folks who have loved the Lodge and all it encompassed in the past, there will be a new group of folks who will come along, never knowing how it once was, and embrace it all.
I compare it to my lack of knowledge of how Figment once was as compared to now. All I know is the current attraction, since the original had gone away sometime before our 1st visit in 1999. I hear all about it, have read all about it, and wish I could have seen it for myself. But alas, it will never be.
For me personally, I hope I can embrace all the Lodge offers now vs. what I remember it being. So far, GP has been a plus. I miss the beach, I miss turning the corner at the edge of the main lodge as we walked towards the boats, I miss Trout Pass as we shimmy past it on the narrow walkway, plus a few other sort of trivial things we took for granted all those years. But in turn, WL has taken on a new life. Again, for me personally, I have to get on board and ride the train, or watch it pass me by. I hope to ride and not be a bystander! Just hope they get the kinks worked out soon
Looking forward to hearing your further thoughts on your experiences of it all so far...staying tuned in
