A week in Key West, FL–Florida in January trip
We were in Key West in January 2022, as part of our Florida in January trip. Our week in Key West might be the longest we’ve ever camped in one place, other than when we lived in the Airstream for six months. We figured we should stay awhile since it’s so far away, and because…

One night in Juno Beach, FL–Florida in January trip
We were in Juno Beach in January 2022 as part of our Florida in January trip. After leaving Atlanta, we were in a rush to get to Key West, over twelve hours away. We decided to suck it up and have one loooong day of driving and one more sane driving day… so this was…

Two nights in Atlanta, GA (visit #6)–Florida in January trip
We were in Atlanta in January 2021 as part of our Florida in January trip. Atlanta was the second stop on our Florida trip, an easy (well, depending on Atlanta traffic) 3.5-hour drive from Asheville. I’m always unsure if I should include our Atlanta visits here (see the not super-detailed write-ups for visit #1 and…

One night in Asheville, NC (visit #11)–Florida in January trip
We were in Asheville in December 2021 as part of our Florida in January trip. Read about our many Asheville visits here. Blah blah blah Asheville. I know, you’re bored, but we were heading south on our Florida odyssey, so of course we stopped in Asheville. Also, Interstate 85 between Charlotte and Greenville is a…

Trip planning: Florida in January
Are we officially snowbirds? Wikipedia’s definition includes us: “A snowbird is a person who migrates from the colder northern parts of North America to warmer southern locales, typically during the winter… A significant portion of the snowbird community is made up of recreational vehicle users (RVers).” So then yes, we’re happily snowbirds, leaving gloomy Virginia in gloomy January for…

One night in Lake Lure, NC–Quickie Fall Loop
We visited Lake Lure in November 2021, as part of our quickie fall loop from Erwin, TN to Asheville to Lake Lure. Lake Lure is a tiny town with a pretty recreational lake nestled in the mountains less than an hour from Asheville. There’s not much to the town that isn’t lake-related, so in the off-season,…

Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #10)–Quickie Fall Loop
We visited Asheville in November 2021, as part of our quickie fall loop from Erwin, TN to Asheville to Lake Lure, NC. Read about our many other Asheville visits here. This was our tenth time taking the Airstream to Asheville! Can you tell we love it? I know everyone is bored with my Asheville posts, but…

One night in Erwin, TN–Quickie Fall Loop
We were in Erwin in November 2021, as part of our quickie fall loop from Erwin to Asheville to Lake Lure, NC. Read about our second visit in September 2023 here. I say “in Erwin, TN,” but we didn’t actually go into Erwin proper. We did see a sign for Union Street Taproom, so there’s…

Quickie fall loop: Erwin, TN – Asheville, NC – Lake Lure, NC
We did this loop from November 15 to November 20, 2021. We live in central Virginia, and when we want to take the Airstream out for a few days our usual quickie destination is Asheville. We’ve been there a bunch of times and it checks all the boxes for us: great food, beer, cocktails, hiking,…

Two days in Floyd, VA (visit #2)
We visited Floyd in August 2021. Read about our first visit to Floyd in May 2021 here. We also visited Boone, NC on this trip. Floyd is the coolest little mountain town (although it’s not our #1 absolute favorite little mountain town), especially on Friday nights in the summer when there’s a jamming bluegrass band…
