One night in Tuscaloosa, AL–Tucson for Christmas trip
We were in Tuscaloosa in January 2024, as part of our Tucson for Christmas trip. Between New Orleans and Atlanta (our next scheduled destination), we had an open night. Where to stop? Mobile left us with too much driving the next morning, Birmingham doesn’t have a convenient RV campground, maybe return to Montgomery? Or Tuscaloosa? College towns…

One night in Knoxville, TN — Tucson for Christmas Trip
We were in Knoxville in mid-December 2023, as part of our Tucson for Christmas trip. Our Tucson for Christmas trip has begun! We’re heading west–I’m typing this from cold, rainy Amarillo, and I hit publish in Arizona! Since we’re rushing out West as quickly as reasonably possible, we replaced our usual first stop of Asheville…

We visited Ellensburg in mid-September 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Looking to break up the seven-hour drive between Sandpoint and Mount Rainier, we stopped for a couple nights in Ellensburg, Washington.

Two nights in Madison, WI–Big Trip #4
We were in Madison in August 2022 as part of Big Trip #4 When planning Big Trip #4, we only gave ourselves one night in Madison, and pretty quickly regretted that decision. And then–good news!–we wanted to leave Michigan City a day early, so we ended up with two nights in Madison. It’s a fun…

Two nights in Streetsboro, OH–Big Trip #4
We were in Streetsboro in August 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. After our stopover in Fayetteville, we spent a couple days in Streetsboro to explore Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Our campground is on the very eastern edge of Streetsboro, and downtown Streetsboro doesn’t seem like anything special, no offense. The town of Hudson,…

Four days in St Augustine, FL (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip
We were in St Augustine as part of our Southeast Lollipop trip in January 2020. Read about our second visit in 2022 here. Pretty little St Augustine is VERY touristy, especially around the holidays. Here’s the first impression I jotted down on our initial trip into downtown: “Holy hell people everywhere.” The holiday crowds were…
