Four days in New Orleans, LA
A big city has to be special for us to take the Airstream there: in addition to having fun and/or interesting things to do and see and eat and drink, and it must have a centrally-located campground. We’re not keen...

Four days in Tucson, AZ–Big Trip #2
We were in Tucson at the very end of November 2018, as part of Big Trip #2. Read about our second visit in 2021 here and our third in 2022 here. J and I have a past relationship with Tucson:...
One day in Kansas City, MO
Technically, we were here two nights and one day, if you’re wondering how we managed to cram in so much alcohol consumption. Overall, we found Kansas City to be interesting aesthetically, but we were turned off by all the closed...

Two days in Mobile, AL
Campground We stayed at Shady Acres Campground, a peaceful, no-frills campground in a neighborhood a short drive from downtown Mobile. We appreciated that we were able to cobble together a decent run from our front door, through the cemetery on...
