    Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #7)–Misty Mountain Week trip

    We were in Asheville in September 2019; we also visited Fayetteville and the Misty Mountain Music Festival on this week away.

    One night in Williamsport, MD–Acadia Loop trip

    We visited Williamsport in May 2019 during our Acadia National Park trip. This will be an easy post to write.

I uncurled from my fetal position a few times: to help hitch up the…

  • Five days in Bar Harbor, Maine–Acadia Loop trip

    Five days in Bar Harbor, Maine–Acadia Loop trip

    We visited Bar Harbor in May 2019 during our Acadia NP trip. Dragging the Airstream down narrow, low-clearance, steephilly New England roads was completely worth it: Bar Harbor, and specifically Acadia National Park, is a spectacular vacation destination. We ate an absurd number of lobster rolls, drank as much local beer as we could get…

    We visited Hershey in May 2019, as part of our trip to Acadia National Park. Our first real target destination on our road trip to Acadia was J’s mom’s house in Beverly, MA, but we didn’t want to do the drive from VA to MA with the Airstream all in one day. Hershey, PA sits…
