One night in Hershey, PA

Two days in Nashville, TN (visit #4)
Nashville was our second-to-last stop on Big Trip #2, because it’s well-positioned for heading home from Out West, and because it’s a super fun town with a great urban camping situation. Read about our previous Nashville visits: ONE, TWO, THREE!...
One night in Hot Springs, AR (visit #2)
