Two nights in Oceanside, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited Oceanside in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. When we first started planning Big Trip #4, it looked quite different from what it became: our original plan sent us east after Crater Lake and south through the Rockies. That would have been an incredible itinerary, but what we ended up…

One night in Huntington Beach, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited Huntington Beach in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Huntington Beach was a last-minute addition to our itinerary, added when we learned our friend Sara from VA was going to be in the next town on business. We lucked into a sweet campsite and had a great time in town,…

Two nights in Ventura, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited Ventura in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Ventura was really only on our radar because friends had lived there until a few years ago, and they adored it, and they are cool people, so we should like it, right? Right! We loved it. Ventura’s a surprisingly quiet surf town…

Two nights in San Luis Obispo, CA–Big Trip #4
We visited SLO in late October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. San Luis Obispo was originally supposed to be the next stop after Santa Cruz. We pictured ourselves doing the entire scenic drive along Route 1 through Big Sur in one day from top to bottom; instead, we did the top half of…

One night in Big Sur, CA–Big Trip #4
We were in Big Sur in mid-October, 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. The Marina–Santa Cruz-Big Sur-San Luis Obispo portion of the trip is a little hectic because we had to shuffle some planned stops due to a work obligation that came up for J. The chaos worked out great for us, though, because…

Two nights in Santa Cruz, CA–Big Trip #4
We were in Santa Cruz in mid-October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. We made it to the California coast! Our original itinerary had us staying in Monterey at Monterey County Fair RV Park, but they scheduled an event overtop of our stay and canceled everyone’s reservations. Nice. So we reevaluated and decided that…

One night in Marina, CA–Big Trip #4
We were in Marina in mid-October 2022, as part of Big Trip #4. Marina was a last-second one-night stop on the way from the interior national parks in Northern California (Kings Canyon and Sequoia) to our originally-planned first stop on the coast, Santa Cruz. We thought we’d be able to visit Monterey from Santa Cruz,…

Portland, ME addendum: two nights in Portland sans Bugsy and Airstream
We visited Portland in July 2022. Read about our first visit with Bugsy and the Airstream in 2019 here! I feel like I’m cheating by writing an AirstreamDog post about a trip we took without either the Airstream or the Dog, but we wanted to update our previous Portland post because we were able to…

One night in Savannah, GA (visit #2)–Florida in January trip
We were in Savannah in February 2022 as part of our Florida in January trip. Read about our first visit to Savannah in 2017 here. Savannah was the last official stop on our Florida trip; after Savannah, we parked in my sister’s driveway in NC for a night, and then went home. Originally we’d planned on two…

One night in Fort Clinch State Park, FL–Florida in January trip
We were in Fort Clinch in February 2022 as part of our Florida in January trip. Fort Clinch State Park is located at the very top of the Florida coast on Amelia Island, 1.5 hours north of St Augustine, just outside the charming little town of Fernandina Beach. We had booked two nights here, but felt satisfied…
