Charlotte’s an easy overnight stop for us when taking the Airstream south or home to VA from the South. The campground is convenient to a cool part of town, and that cool part of town is full of breweries. Read...
For a dose of culture, a tasty meal, and a relaxing drink after a long day of driving, we chose Montgomery as our stopover between New Orleans and Atlanta. Montgomery is packed with important historical sites and some solid bar...
