    One night in Joplin, MO–Big Trip #3

    We visited Joplin in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Joplin is a medium-sized town on Route 66 near the interstate. Langston Hughes was born in Joplin, Bonnie and Clyde hid out there, and Janis Joplin is unaffiliated with it. We chose it as a stopover for convenience, Route 66 history, and the fact…

    One night in Breckenridge, CO–Big Trip #3

    We visited Breckenridge in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. After visiting the charming ski towns of Telluride and Crested Butte, we were excited to experience one more before turning for home. Breckenridge isn’t like those two pretty, quaint, happy little towns! It’s much glitzier; everything seems shiny and bigger and buzzier. We much…
