    One night in Portland, Maine–Acadia Loop trip

    We were in Portland in May 2019, as part of our Acadia trip. Read about our second, more productive visit in 2022 here! We didn’t plan to stop in Portland when planning this trip. Yes, it’s a cool town with a great beer scene, but we’d been there before (although it was many moons ago

  • Big Trip #2: Retrospective

    Big Trip #2: Retrospective

    Big Trip #2 was in Fall of 2018; you should also read about Big Trip #1 in 2016, Big Trip #3 in 2020, and Big Trip #4 in 2022! Our final stop on Big Trip #2 was Asheville for one night, but I already listed our activities there on the Big Trip #2 Catch-up post,

    Four days in Tucson, AZ (visit #1)–Big Trip #2

  • Big Trip #2 catch-up

    Big Trip #2 catch-up

    We were on Big Trip #2 in fall of 2018. Okay, so we’ve been back home in VA for a month now and I’m still writing about Utah and Arizona. It’s fun to relive our adventures in the Western sun, sitting here in gloomy Virginia where it’s threatening to sleet later today. Maybe we should

  • 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

  • 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!

  • Trip planning: looping out to Big Bend

    Trip planning: looping out to Big Bend

    This planning post was for a trip to Big Bend in January 2018. We visited Big Bend on our three-month trip two years ago and, because we were based in Ft Davis, an hour and a half from the entrance to the park, we spent just ONE DAY in the park. One measly day! We knew

  • One day in Greenville, SC–Short Southeast Loop

    One day in Greenville, SC–Short Southeast Loop

    We were in Greenville in November 2017 as part of a short Southeast loop. Read about our second visit in 2024 here. We only had 24 hours in Greenville–lunchtime to lunchtime–but we packed a lot of activity in to that time: lots of walking, followed by snacks, beer, dinner, beer, nightcap, and BISCUITS!
