    Trip planning: Asheville, Nashville, Pisgah/Nantahala…

    In my opinion, trip planning is almost as exciting as trip taking! We’re starting to think about our biannual Asheville Airstreaming pilgrimage, and wondering what other explorations we can cram in while we’re out and about. Right now, we’re leaning toward a few days in Nashville in our favorite parking lot campsite, a couple days…

    Asheville Favorites

    We first wrote this post in 2018 after our fifth Asheville visit, but we’ve kept it up to date with our favorites since then! As of this writing, we’ve taken the Airstream to Asheville FOURTEEN times (we think–we stopped writing a post for each visit and think there was one between #11 and #12 in…

  • Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #5)–Big Bend Loop

    Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #5)–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Asheville in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. We’ve posted a bunch of times about Asheville; check out all the posts here. Yes, Asheville again. I’ll keep this short since we keep going to Asheville and visiting a lot of the same places, and I promise to write an…

  • Two days in Lexington, KY–Big Bend Loop

    Two days in Lexington, KY–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Lexington in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. I am a horseperson. Not a literal horse-person hybrid (although my mom might disagree with that when remembering the behavior of my 12-year-old self), but someone who since age ten has loved horses almost as much as dogs (come on, nothing…

  • Four days in St Louis, MO–Big Bend Loop

    Four days in St Louis, MO–Big Bend Loop

    We visited St Louis in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. St Louis isn’t somewhere we’d ever talked about visiting. All I really knew about it was that the Arch is there. But while researching this trip’s itinerary, J discovered that St Louis is one of the rare big cities that has…

  • Two days in Branson, MO–Big Bend Loop

    Two days in Branson, MO–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Branson in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. Branson wasn’t on our initial itinerary for this trip, and then the NYT’s list of 52 Places to Go in 2018 was released–and Branson’s on the list! It’s on the way from Medicine Park to St Louis, and the route from Branson…

  • Three days in Fayetteville, AR–Big Bend Loop

    Three days in Fayetteville, AR–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Fayetteville in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. I was surprised at how much I liked Fayetteville, not having really known much about it going in. We had mostly considered it a base from which to do some hiking in the Ozarks, but in addition to that, from the…

  • One day in Abilene, TX–Big Bend Loop

    One day in Abilene, TX–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Abilene in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. When plotting the route for this trip, we had some definite destinations that needed to be connected by unknown intermediate points. Abilene was one such point, chosen because it has a few breweries and a campground not too far from town.…

    Five days in Austin (visit #2)–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Austin in early January 2018 as part of our Big Bend loop. Read about our other Austin visits here. This was our second stay at our favorite urban campground, Pecan Grove, smack dab in the middle of one of our favorite cities, Austin. Read about our first stay here (and third here and…

    Three days in Nashville, TN (visit #2)–Big Bend Loop

    We were in Nashville in December 2017 as part of our Big Bend loop. [Read about our other Nashville visits here: #1, #3, #4, #5, and #6, or skip to our Nashville Favorites post!] After we took the Airstream to Nashville last Spring, we knew we wanted to return for the food, drink, and fun,…
