  • 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.

Campground Ivy Acres RV Park is lovely, with large pull-through sites…

Boring, right? We’re starting to get antsy to take the Airstream out again so hopefully I’ll have an interesting trip to report on soon. A recent email…

    We visited Durango in April 2016, during Big Trip #1. Read here about our second visit in 2020, during Big Trip #3. Durango, like Flagstaff, is a town that we could see ourselves living in.
