Two nights in Niagara Falls, ON–Big Trip #5
We visited Niagara Falls as part of Big Trip #5 in August 2026. Crossing into Niagara Falls, Ontario marked our first time taking the Airstream to Canada! Not our first time visiting Canada while Airstreaming–that was when we popped across from Sault Ste Marie, Michigan to Sault Ste Marie, Ontario on Big Trip #1, but…

One night in Ithaca, NY–Big Trip #5
We visited Ithaca as part of Big Trip #5 in August 2026. I’ve been intrigued by Ithaca since I was a kid and saw “Ithaca is Gorges” on a bumper sticker at home in Virginia. I don’t know if it was the thought of dramatic nature or the wordplay that appealed to me more, but…

Trip planning: Late summer loop through Ontario – Big Trip #5
UPDATE FROM THE ROAD: HERE’S WHERE WE’VE BEEN SO FAR! ******* Uncle Jim, you will be disappointed… we finally chose between our two very competitive late summer itinerary rivals, and the winner is ONTARIO! We are super excited! The Ontario portion is focused on the provincial parks lining the northern shore of Lake Superior. We…

Trip planning take 2: Rockies or Ontario?
I’m still in trip dreaming and planning mode over here in icy Virginia. J and I are tossing around the idea of doing a Big Trip late this summer; in the past we’d done a Big Trip every two years (#1 in 2016, #2 in 2018, #3 in 2020, and #4 in 2022), but this…

One night in Asheville, NC (visit #19)–October WV/NC Mountains loop
We visited Asheville in October 2025 as part of our October WV/NC Mountains loop. Read about alllll our other Asheville visits here. We stopped for a night in Asheville to break up the drive home from Bryson City, an hour west. But we also stopped because we love Asheville! This will be a boring post…

One night in Asheville, NC (visit #18)–May Carolinas loop
We visited Asheville in May 2025 as part of our May Carolinas loop. Read alllll of our other Asheville posts here. We spent the final night of our May trip in our favorite close-to-home RV destination, Asheville, an easy 40-minute drive north from Brevard. With just one night in the city, we focused on our standard…

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…

Trip planning: an excuse to go to the Rockies?
[Read the second draft of this trip proposal written in 2/26 here!] My sister gave me a super cute water bottle for my birthday, with spaces to stick pretty stickers for each national park you’ve visited. I happily decorated the bottle with 44 stickers and only later realized I made a mistake: I stuck on…

Carolinas in November: Retrospective
In November 2024, we made a big loop down the South Carolina coast and back up through central SC and into the NC mountains. We had a ton of fun, ate and drank and played a lot, saw nature and art and history, and would love to do a variation on this trip again in…
