Two nights in Fargo, ND (visit #2)–Big Trip #4
We were in Fargo in early September 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Read about our first trip to Fargo in 2020 here. The drive to Fargo from Grand Rapids was a pretty one, through forests and past lakes on smaller roads. We arrived in Fargo at one of our favorite campgrounds with a simple…

One night in Grand Rapids, MN–Big Trip #4
We were in Grand Rapids in August 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Don’t confuse Grand Rapids, MN with Grand Rapids, MI, which we visited in 2016 while on Big Trip #1! Where to break up the drive from Duluth to Fargo? We chose Grand Rapids, based on the presence of breweries (for J)…

Two nights in Duluth, MN–Big Trip #4
We were in Duluth in August 2022, as part of Big Trip #4 We read about Duluth somewhere on a “best of” list–who knows where or when, but we throw things we read onto a master map, and when planning trips we consult the master map. So Duluth became part of Big Trip #4, connecting…

Two nights in Madison, WI–Big Trip #4
We were in Madison in August 2022 as part of Big Trip #4 When planning Big Trip #4, we only gave ourselves one night in Madison, and pretty quickly regretted that decision. And then–good news!–we wanted to leave Michigan City a day early, so we ended up with two nights in Madison. It’s a fun…

Cuyahoga Valley National Park
We visited Cuyahoga Valley National Park in August 2022 as part of Big Trip #4. Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Yosemite… Cuyahoga Valley National Park? Don’t go to Cuyahoga expecting dramatic vistas and crazy wildlife. It’s an urban park, squeezed between towns and along highways, with no escape from the constant drone of traffic. But the woods…

Two nights in Streetsboro, OH–Big Trip #4
We were in Streetsboro in August 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. After our stopover in Fayetteville, we spent a couple days in Streetsboro to explore Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Our campground is on the very eastern edge of Streetsboro, and downtown Streetsboro doesn’t seem like anything special, no offense. The town of Hudson,…

Portland, ME addendum: two nights in Portland sans Bugsy and Airstream
We visited Portland in July 2022. Read about our first visit with Bugsy and the Airstream in 2019 here! I feel like I’m cheating by writing an AirstreamDog post about a trip we took without either the Airstream or the Dog, but we wanted to update our previous Portland post because we were able to…
