    One night in Charleston, SC (visit #2)–Carolinas in November trip

    We visited Charleston in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. Read about our first trip in 2017 here. This visit was very different from the first time we took the Airstream to Charleston in 2017! Then we focused on touristy stuff in the historic district; this trip we didn’t much feel…

    Two nights in Edisto Beach, SC–Carolinas in November trip

    We visited Edisto Beach in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Georgetown, we drove a couple hours south to Edisto Beach, chosen for its old-school beach town feel, its scenic state park campground, and the dog-friendly beach itself. Our savvy Atlanta cousin gave us an important tip when we told…

    One night in Georgetown, SC–Carolinas in November trip

    We visited Georgetown in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Raleigh, it was a 3.5-hour drive down to Georgetown, the longest driving segment of our two-week trip through the Carolinas. Georgetown is the third-oldest city in South Carolina, behind Charleston and Beaufort, both stops on this Carolinas trip. It was…

    One night in Raleigh, NC–Carolinas in November trip

    We visited Raleigh in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. At long last, we’re on the road again! It feels like forever since we’ve been out Airstreaming: our last trip was a week in the mountains of North Carolina back in May. The most recent write-ups from Asheville and Black Mountain…

    Trip planning: the Carolinas in November

    Hello! We have a quiet summer Airstream-wise and are itching to get out on the road! To scratch that itch, we’re starting to plan our next Airstream adventure in November. We have two weeks between plans in Southern Pines, NC and Burlington, NC, so that seems like a perfect opportunity to go Airstreaming. Where should…

  • Two nights in Black Mountain, NC (visit #2)–Spring in the NC Mountains trip

    Two nights in Black Mountain, NC (visit #2)–Spring in the NC Mountains trip

    We visited Black Mountain in early May 2024 as part of our short Spring in the NC Mountains trip. Read about our first visit in 2023 here. Black Mountain is just a twenty-minute hop east from Asheville, and even though we could easily visit while the Airstream is parked in Asheville, we love being based…

    We visited Asheville in early May 2024 as part of our short Spring in the NC Mountains trip. Read alllll of our other Asheville posts here.

  • Two nights in Franklin, NC–Spring in the NC Mountains trip

    Two nights in Franklin, NC–Spring in the NC Mountains trip

    We visited Franklin in early May 2024 as part of our short Spring in the NC Mountains trip. The first destination of our six-day let’s-take-the-Airstream-somewhere-fun trip was Franklin, NC, a small town in the mountains southwest of Asheville. We hadn’t been to Franklin before, but we enjoyed a stay in nearby Sylva several years ago,…

    Trip planning: Spring in the NC mountains

    The Airstream just came home from the shop–you may recall from the end of our last trip that we had a nonfunctioning hot water heater bypass, damage from the exploded tire, and a missing rock guard. Everything appears to be ship shape now, so it’s time for a road trip! As we started thinking about…

    Tucson for Christmas Trip: Retrospective

    We were on the road from 12/10/23 to 1/14/24 for our Christmas trip to Tucson. We had some lofty goals this trip: obviously we were going to spend a solid chunk of time in Tucson for Christmas with family, but we also wanted to get all the way out to Death Valley, and hit Austin…
