One night in Charleston, SC (visit #3)–May Carolinas loop
We visited Charleston in May 2025 as part of our May Carolinas loop. Read about our first visit in 2017 here and our second in 2024 here. From Myrtle Beach, it was an easy 2.5-hour drive down to Charleston. We were scheduled to stay for two days, but being there without Bugsy was incredibly hard–and…

One night in Myrtle Beach, SC–May Carolinas loop
We visited Myrtle Beach in May 2025 as part of our May Carolinas loop. Flashy Myrtle Beach is an hour-and-a-half drive and a world away from laid-back Oak Island. I hadn’t been since college beach week and had no idea what to expect. We were bracing ourselves a bit for a tacky touristy or obnoxious…

One night in Richmond, VA (visit #2) and three nights in Atlantic Beach, NC (visit #1)–May Carolinas loop
We visited Richmond and Atlantic Beach in May 2025 as part of our May Carolinas loop; read about our first (Airstream) visit to Richmond way back in 2016 here. Writing up the night we spent in Richmond and the weekend we spent in Atlantic Beach has been a struggle for us, as Richmond turned out…

Planning again, but shorter and sooner: May three-weeker
As some blocks of activities and obligations shift around on our Spring calendar, we’re seeing the possibility of a three-ish-week Airstream trip in May, and since I love to trip-plan, here I am to type up some ideas. Alas, we don’t have enough time to go all the way to Wind Cave. I had so…

Three nights in Hilton Head, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Hilton Head in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Beaufort, we drove less than an hour down to the next Sea Island to the south, Hilton Head. We weren’t sure what to expect there: ritzy resorts mixed with laidback locals’ joints? Ubiquitous tennis and golf culture? Beautiful beaches…

One night in Charleston, SC (visit #2)–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Charleston in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. Read about our first trip in 2017 here. This visit was very different from the first time we took the Airstream to Charleston in 2017! Then we focused on touristy stuff in the historic district; this trip we didn’t much feel…

Two nights in Edisto Beach, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Edisto Beach in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Georgetown, we drove a couple hours south to Edisto Beach, chosen for its old-school beach town feel, its scenic state park campground, and the dog-friendly beach itself. Our savvy Atlanta cousin gave us an important tip when we told…

Trip planning: the Carolinas in November
[UPDATE! Here’s what we ended up doing!] Hello! We have a quiet summer Airstream-wise and are itching to get out on the road! To scratch that itch, we’re starting to plan our next Airstream adventure in November. We have two weeks between plans in Southern Pines, NC and Burlington, NC, so that seems like a…

Two nights in Oceanside, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited Oceanside in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. When we first started planning Big Trip #4, it looked quite different from what it became: our original plan sent us east after Crater Lake and south through the Rockies. That would have been an incredible itinerary, but what we ended up…

One night in Huntington Beach, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited Huntington Beach in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Huntington Beach was a last-minute addition to our itinerary, added when we learned our friend Sara from VA was going to be in the next town on business. We lucked into a sweet campsite and had a great time in town,…
