    Five days in Asheville, NC (visit #6)

    We visited Asheville in September 2018. We also visited Sylva as part of this short trip. …and we’re back in Asheville. As I mentioned in my Sylva post, we needed a quick trip to knock the dust off our Airstreaming skills before our next Big Trip in a couple weeks. You may know that we…

  • Two days in Sylva, NC

    Two days in Sylva, NC

    We visited Sylva in September 2018. We also visited Asheville as part of this short trip. This little foray into Western NC had two stops: Sylva, to more easily access hikes west of Asheville that would normally be out of driving range, and Asheville, for our usual eating/drinking/hiking/city adventure and fun. (We had to cancel…

  • Ode to Biscuitville

    Ode to Biscuitville

    If you have read any Airstreamdog destination posts, you may have a tiny inkling of how obsessed with biscuits we are. (Bugsy has her own, slightly different biscuit obsession.) We wrote about Biscuit Love in Nashville, Blue Ridge Biscuit Co near Asheville, Biscuit Head in Asheville, another branch of Biscuit Head in Greenville, SC, Denver…

    Trip planning: Southwest for the late fall–Big Trip #2

    This planning post was for what became Big Trip #2 in late 2018. Read the trip retrospective here! We haven’t even started our next Airstream trip (leaving next week!) (possibly subbing Babcock State Park in WV for Nashville as the TN State Fair has bumped us from our preferred campground at the Fairgrounds Nashville), but…

    Trip planning: Asheville, Nashville, Pisgah/Nantahala…

    In my opinion, trip planning is almost as exciting as trip taking! We’re starting to think about our biannual Asheville Airstreaming pilgrimage, and wondering what other explorations we can cram in while we’re out and about. Right now, we’re leaning toward a few days in Nashville in our favorite parking lot campsite, a couple days…

  • Asheville Favorites

    Asheville Favorites

    We first wrote this post in 2018 after our fifth Asheville visit, but we’ve kept it up to date with our favorites since then! As of this writing, we’ve taken the Airstream to Asheville FOURTEEN times (we think–we stopped writing a post for each visit and think there was one between #11 and #12 in…

  • Six+ months (!) in Crozet, VA

    Six+ months (!) in Crozet, VA

    We full-timed in the Airstream the first half of 2018. We’ve stayed in a lot of campgrounds across and up and down the US (see where on this map!), and Misty Mountain Camp Resort in the village of Crozet, just outside Charlottesville, Virginia, is the nicest campground we’ve found–which is lucky for us, as we…

  • Two days in Chapel Hill / Durham / Carrboro, NC–Big Bend Loop

    Two days in Chapel Hill / Durham / Carrboro, NC–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Carrboro in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. We specifically went to the Carrboro area to see a band we love, Destroyer, whom we followed from Asheville. A lovely bonus to this stop is that my mom, sister, and nephew live nearby and could pop over for a visit!…

    Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #5)–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Asheville in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. We’ve posted a bunch of times about Asheville; check out all the posts here. Yes, Asheville again. I’ll keep this short since we keep going to Asheville and visiting a lot of the same places, and I promise to write an…

  • Two days in Lexington, KY–Big Bend Loop

    Two days in Lexington, KY–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Lexington in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. I am a horseperson. Not a literal horse-person hybrid (although my mom might disagree with that when remembering the behavior of my 12-year-old self), but someone who since age ten has loved horses almost as much as dogs (come on, nothing…
