One night in Marfa, TX
We were in Marfa from February 3 to February 4, 2021. Marfa is a surprising place: a charming, half-hippie, half-cowboy little town waaaay out in southwest Texas. It’s known for a thriving art scene and the mysterious Marfa Lights, it...
Two days in Big Bend National Park (visit #4)
We were in Big Bend from February 1 to February 3, 2021. Read about our past visits here: 2019, 2018, and 2016. We love Big Bend! Is it our favorite National Park? Maybe! It’s too hard to choose, but Big...
One night in Alpine, TX (visit #3)
We were in Alpine from January 31 to February 1, 2021. Read about our past visits here: 2019, 2018, and a couple hours in 2016. After some big city fun in Austin and San Antonio, we shot west toward our...
Two days in San Antonio, TX
We were in San Antonio from January 29 to January 31, 2021. In all our gallivanting around Texas, we’d never taken the Airstream to San Antonio. We’ve seen Austin and San Antonio as an either/or, can’t stop at both, and...
Three days in Austin, TX (visit #4)
We were in Austin from January 26 to January 29, 2021. Read about our previous visits here: 2017, 2018, and 2019. Austin made us forget all about our disappointing stopover in Vidor! I need to write an Austin Favorites post,...
One night in Vidor, TX
We were in Vidor from January 25 to January 26, 2021. Where??? It’s a loooooong drive between Austin and anywhere appealing to the east. This Houston to New Orleans road trip guide has some potentially good stopover options, but after...
One night in Ocean Springs, MS
We were in Ocean Springs from January 24 to January 25, 2021. We left Atlanta and headed west, stopping for a night in Ocean Springs, MS, a posh and bustling little beach town full of eating and drinking establishments. It’s...
Two nights in Atlanta, twice (visits #4 and #5)
We were in Atlanta in January and February 2021, as part of our Winter Warmth trip. The first and second-to-last (Charlotte was last) stop on our Winter Warmth expedition was Atlanta, and this post combines both visits. Note that we...
We went somewhere warm in February
Mostly, anyways. We also ended up in Texas during the end-times freezing temperatures and power and water outages. Other than that, it was a wonderful trip! Here’s your teaser while I start to work on the trip posts. We had...
