    A day in Oxford, MS–Big Trip #1

    We visited Oxford in March 2016 as part of Big Trip #1. Camping Lessons Learned This one was a doozy.

    Practice Camping Trip #1: Fredericksburg, VA

    Campground(s) We spent two nights at the Fredericksburg VA / Washington DC South KOA. It was quiet and woodsy, with a little lake, and pretty sparsely populated on a cold January weekend.
