Big Trip #4 Retrospective
Big Trip #4 was in fact a BIG trip! We covered a lot of ground and had all sorts of memorable experiences, and that’s why it took me almost four months to finish writing all the trip posts. My bad. But I love writing these retrospectives a few months after we get home because it…

One night in Nashville, TN (visit #6)–Big Trip #4
We were in Nashville in mid-November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Read about our favorites from our five previous trips here. We’ve now taken the Airstream to Nashville six times… but we may not return. Why? We love Nashville, but part of the reason is because we loved our campground at the Nashville Fairgrounds,…

We were in West Memphis in mid-November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Read about our two previous trips to Memphis in 2020 here and 2017 here, and our subsequent visit in 2023 here. This is one of my favorite quick stops on the I-40 slog through the middle of the country, and as we…

One night in Clarksville, AR–Big Trip #4
We were in Spadra in mid-November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. J was looking at the map along I-40 to find our next overnight between Tulsa and Memphis, and he zeroed in on a recreation area on a lake in western Arkansas, not far from the interstate. The photos of Spadra Park online were…

One night in Tulsa, OK–Big Trip #4
We were in Tulsa in early November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Read about our second visit in 2023 here. Tulsa’s not quiiiite on the way home to VA from AZ, but it’s well worth the extra hour of driving if you’re traveling I-40 through Oklahoma, as we were when heading from Sayre to…

One night in Sayre, OK–Big Trip #4
We were in Sayre in early November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweeping down the plain! We swept down the plain with the Airstream from Palo Duro Canyon in the Texas panhandle, headed toward Tulsa, and picked a dot on the map that seemed interesting for an overnight stop.…

One-and-a-half days in Palo Duro Canyon State Park, TX–Big Trip #4
We were in Palo Duro in early November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Did you know the second largest canyon in the US is in Texas? I assume I don’t need to say what the #1 largest is. We’ve had Palo Duro Canyon on our master map of possible camping locations for a few…

One night in Tucumcari, NM–Big Trip #4
We were in Tucumcari in early November 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. After we hiked in White Sands we were ready to leave Alamogordo, and the next interesting town to the east was Tucumcari, an old Route 66 town, so we moved there for a night. Wikipedia says it’s the largest city on Route…
