    We visited Asheville in November 2021, as part of our quickie fall loop from Erwin, TN to Asheville to Lake Lure, NC. Read about our many other Asheville visits here. This was our tenth time taking the Airstream to Asheville! Can you tell we love it? I know everyone is bored with my Asheville posts, but

    Three nights in New Orleans, LA (visit #2)–Winter Warmth trip

    We were in New Orleans in February 2021 during our Winter Warmth trip. Read about our previous visit in 2020 here and our subsequent visit in 2024 here. We almost didn’t go to New Orleans. After our Texas ordeal, we kind of wanted to shoot straight across to Florida for guaranteed sun and warmth. But

    Three days in Austin, TX (visit #4)–Winter Warmth trip

    We were in Austin in January 2021, as part of our Winter Warmth Trip. Read about our previous visits here: 2017, 2018, and 2019, and our Snowmaggedon experience in 2021 here; and our subsequent visit in 2024 here. Austin made us forget all about our disappointing stopover in Vidor! I need to write an Austin

    Two nights in Atlanta, twice (visits #4 and #5)–Winter Warmth trip

    We were in Atlanta in January and February 2021, as part of our Winter Warmth trip. The first and second-to-last (Charlotte was last) stop on our Winter Warmth expedition was Atlanta, and this post combines both visits. Note that we visited during the pandemic, so prioritized outdoor experiences. And eating, we definitely prioritized eating. I

  • We went somewhere warm in February

    We went somewhere warm in February

    Mostly, anyways. We also ended up in Texas during the end-times freezing temperatures and power and water outages. Other than that, it was a wonderful trip! Here’s your teaser while I start to work on the trip posts. We had extremely spotty campground internet service while traveling, which is my excuse for not posting anything

    Big Trip #3 Retrospective

    Big Trip #3 was in Fall 2020; you should also read about Big Trip #1 in 2016, Big Trip #2 in 2018, and Big Trip #4 in 2022! This trip was a little weird. Wildfires altered our route: our initial trip plans included Oregon and California, but after experiencing the smoke in Montana, we rerouted.

  • Two nights in Idaho Falls, ID–Big Trip #3

    Two nights in Idaho Falls, ID–Big Trip #3

    We visited Idaho Falls in late September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Arriving in Idaho Falls was a bit of a shock after a week in the Tetons. There are no mountains. But it’s a nice enough little city, with walkways with artistic benches following the river through downtown, backdropped by a pretty

    One night in Missoula, MT–Big Trip #3

    We visited Missoula in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Here’s something exciting! On the drive to Missoula from Sandpoint we heard a big bang! And one of the Airstream tires had exploded! Woo! We were able to change it on the side of the road and get all new tires (shout out to
