The Bird's Nest is an "RV park" maintained by the Blue Bird
Coachworks next to the factory in Ft. Valley GA for Wanderlodge owners who visit the area and/or are having work done on their coach at the factory. PS.

It's a long-term netiquette issue... If folks have vision problems
when using a computer, most email clients and web browsers allow type to be enlarged for viewing -- and usually the text will re-wrap to make the lines convenient to read. On my Mac using the "Mail" program, I simply hold down the "command" key and hit the + key to enlarge the type if something's too small for my eyes. Most other programs offer some similar arrangement. As a publisher and typographer (in my non-Bird life) I've read considerable research that upper and lower case normally provides the highest levels of reading comprehension. All caps is often difficult to read and results in a much lower comprehension level. Pete Masterson '95 Blue Bird Wanderlodge WBDA 42 aeonix1@...

BIRDS NEST
Jamie,
The birdsnest is a very nice camp ground maintained by Wanderlodge next to the plant in Ft. Valley. It is free and open only to Wanderlodge owners. It is located inside the security fence area of the plant. It is used by Wanderlodge owners at the factory for service and those passing through the area. Some use it for mini rally's. There is a nice club house with a full kitchen area, baths and laundry facilities and a tennis court. It's located about twenty miles west of Perry, Ga. and I-75. It's a great place to stay overnight or while visiting the central Georgia area. Howard Truitt Camilla, Ga. 86 PT40 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

We are planning to head up to the Birds Nest on Tuesday for a couple of days
before RATS, as I understand others are as well. This will be our first time there, hence these questions: Does it ever fill up? Reservations taken? In other words, do we need a Plan B? |

Does it ever fill up? YES Reservations taken? NO In other words, do we
need a Plan B? GET THER FIRST! Or you'll be in the parking lot. It's actually a very nice campground, and in it's heyday it was years ahead of it's time. Or course the motive was to cater to owners and to sell stuff to us. Customer service, smart buisness. Hopefully somebody is listening!!! HINT, HINT, HINT Kurt Horvath 95 PT 42 10ACe |

For any one who has not had the pleasure of staying at the Birds Nest
It is a small park in the corner of the Factory approximately 35 spots divided into an upper level and a lower level The upper area gets a bit more road noise from the street next door the clubhouse is fully furnished with a equipped kitchen washer and dryer showers and washrooms. There is a Large Fireplace in the living room area The park is designed for large coaches with concrete pads and fifty amp service 24 hour security also fully landscaped and very clean. Do Everyone a favour pickup after yourself. I specialize in butts (I am a Smoker my one bad habit) And clean up after your pet and please give others some consideration NO pets in the clubhouse not even little ones there were some words lately between a pet owner and a person who is allergic to animal dander. These people know who they are and no need to mention names It is an excellent park a little off the beaten path Stores within walking distance stephen 77fc35 |

Does this have a crushing affect on anyone?
They don't have any parts that I've request the last 15 or 16 calls. I've heard that there are some folks that like to stay at the nest for extended times, Great, Good for them, they should have to pay. If you own any RV you can pay to camp. I've been to the nest once, it's a great place, If you want to see the last threads of the Bluebird Legacy better get there soon,. Because it's in the SHADOW of it's former self, and may soon be another fond memory I don't understand why we can't realize that the Heydays are over. None of the places, company's, industry's or organizations, do any of the great, extra or special things they used to do. Can you say ECONOMICS? CCW is fighting to stay viable. If you really want to help CCW, I agree with Macy, BUY A NEW COACH! CCW needs to turn around and keep their sights set on the future. Honor the past and press forwards I would love to own a 2009 or 10 or 11 All Stainless Steel Coach, if that doesn't get you going then it's already too late. I managed to buy an eleven year old coach. In 10 years I'll be looking at what they build now. By then it will be in my price range. But that ain't going to happen unless people don't buy any new coaches If CCW wants to support the Vintage owner I suggest that they focus on tech support with as full and complete records that still exists available to the public. If the costs are high then sell it like Detroit Diesel does. Create a technology group to research the files and record data in a usable form for example cross reference BB numbers with OEM Mfg. Numbers, contact retired employees for that sometimes obscure bit of inf. Create a department that will hunt down the parts for a fee, or percentage of the cost. After all that's what most of us wrench heads do now. In a while they would be making money and parts would be cheaper and readily available .They would not have to stock 20 year old parts when in all likelihood they could be drop shipped from the manufacture The Nest is Wanderlodge Lore Will it survive? I don't know. I do know the reality is it has no bearing on me or my coach good or bad. Kurt Horvath 95 PT 42 10AC |
