Austin: Drinking–Winter Loop to Austin
This post is from our visit in January 2017 when we took a Winter Loop to Austin trip! We were in Austin for eight days, and we visited TEN breweries. You’re welcome–our job is to research local beer for you, and we take our job very seriously. We also had a few drinks at non-brewery locations, including cocktails, coffee/tea,…

Austin: Eating–Winter Loop to Austin
This post is from our visit in January 2017 when we took a Winter Loop to Austin trip! We ate SO much and drank SO much in eight days in Austin that since coming home, we’ve been on a strict exercise regimen. It was so, so worth it. We had some phenomenal food experiences in…

36 hours in Asheville, NC (visit #2)–Winter Loop to Austin
We visited Asheville at the very end of 2016, as part of our Winter Loop to Austin. Read about our first visit in early 2016 here, and bazillion visits later you can just skip ahead to our favorites here. We love Asheville! Despite being sick, we still managed to visit a few new breweries (and one old…

First post-Big Trip #1 trip: Three days in Damascus, VA
We first visited Damascus in August 2016. Read about our second visit in September 2023 here. After wrapping up Big Trip #1 in mid-June, we made plans to take the Airstream to a music festival in late August, so in early August we went camping for a few days to make sure everything still worked and we…

We visited Blowing Rock at the end of Big Trip #1, in spring 2016. Read about our second visit in September 2023 here. Blowing Rock was our last camping stop of the trip.

Two days in Jonesborough, TN–Big Trip #1
We visited Jonesborough in June 2016 during Big Trip #1. This was a great stop for us–fantastic camping, rewarding hiking, good beer and delicious tacos. One activity we missed was exploring historic Jonesborough, which looks quaint and lovely, but we prioritized enjoying our sweet campsite over driving more. We’ll just have to go back! Campground We stayed…

Three days in Bardstown, KY–Big Trip #1
We visited Bardstown in June 2016 during Big Trip #1. We interrupt this beer-soaked narrative to bring you a brief tale of bourbon. Bardstown, in the heart of Kentucky bourbon country and with five distilleries of its own, is called the Bourbon Capital of the World. Even if you quit drinking bourbon in college (yep, that’s…

Three days in Houghton, MI–Big Trip #1
We visited Houghton in late May 2016, as part of Big Trip #1. Raise your hand if you can point out Michigan’s Upper Peninsula on a map. Anyone? Yeah, I couldn’t either. Michigan is often referred to as the Mitten State, because, well, look at it and you’ll see the mitten and thumb. But look closer and you’ll…

Two days in Laramie, WY–Big Trip #1
We visited Laramie in May 2016 during Big Trip #1. We didn’t do a whole lot in Laramie. It’s a sleepy Old West city, home of the University of Wyoming, a couple breweries, a charming little crossroads of a downtown, and not much else. Except for the first hour we were in town, the weather was terrible–snow and…

Five days in Fort Collins, CO–Big Trip #1
We visited Fort Collins in May 2016 during Big Trip #1. I have a strange personal attachment to Ft Collins. I had never been there, didn’t know much about it other than its general location north of Denver, but for some reason for something like twenty years I’ve always had a thought in the back…
