Three days in Eastpoint, FL (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip
We were in Eastpoint in early January 2020 as part of our Southeast Lollipop trip. Read about our second visit in February 2021 here. From St Augustine, it was an uneventful 4.5-hour drive across the top of Florida to Eastpoint, on the so-called Forgotten Coast of Florida’s panhandle. This area feels completely different to other parts

Three days in Asheville, NC (visit #7)–Misty Mountain Week trip
We were in Asheville in September 2019; we also visited Fayetteville and the Misty Mountain Music Festival on this week away.

Trip planning: Asheville NC and Fayetteville WV
This planning post was for a trip to Asheville and Fayetteville in September 2019. …but our ultimate destination isn’t either of those places. It’s our Airstream’s old home Misty Mountain Camp Resort in Crozet, VA, for the Misty Mountain Music Festival, a weekend of Virginia performers and local food, beer, and crafts. This will be

Two days in Camden, Maine–Acadia Loop trip
We visited Camden in May 2019 during our Acadia National Park trip. Campground After leaving Bar Harbor, we wanted to explore Central Maine’s coast, so we spent two nights at Megunticook Campground near the towns of Camden, Rockport, and Rockland. It’s a super friendly park, with a sweet doggy in the office and lots of space

Acadia National Park
We visited Acadia in May 2019 as part of this loop trip to Maine. Just outside the quaint seaside town of Bar Harbor, Maine, a five-hour drive north of Boston, sits the exquisite seaside jumble of rocks known as Acadia National Park. We took the Airstream up to Bar Harbor in mid-May for our first

Tarantulas!
All through my formative years, my aunt and uncle had a pet tarantula. A strange choice of pet, no doubt, but Uncle Jim loves the Desert Southwest more than just about anyone else I know, so I guess it made an odd sort of sense. My first tarantula-cousin was a male named Fred who came

Read our many Asheville posts here! Hello! This is not a normal trip recap or planning post, sorry. We’re heading to our favorite quickie Airstream destination, Asheville, next weekend to meet our favorite people from Atlanta (who let us park the Airstream in their driveway when we visit)–but without the Airstream (gasp!) and without Bugsy

Big Bend National Park (visit #3)–Big Trip #2
We visited Big Bend in December 2018 during Big Trip #2. Read about our other visits here: 2021, early 2018, and 2016. Early December must be one of the best times to visit Big Bend National Park. The campground and trails were quiet and sparsely populated, the weather was pleasant, and look at that color in the
