Trip Planning: Go somewhere warm in February
Cold weather is for the birds. Especially during the pandemic when all our activities are outdoors. So why not go to a place where the outdoors is more pleasant? Here’s the plan (and here’s what we actually ended up doing): After parking the Airstream in the driveway of family in NC and GA, we’ll shoot

Six days in Crested Butte, CO–Big Trip #3
We visited Crested Butte in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Crested Butte is our new favorite place! Our planned three-day stay turned into six. Luckily for our trip-extending needs, we visited juuuust as the weather was starting to get cold, and our campground was empty. The weather was chilly but still warm enough

One night in Telluride, CO–Big Trip #3
We visited Telluride in mid-October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. We were supposed to have two nights in Telluride, but we screwed up the dates and missed our first night, and our second night was the very last night the campground was open for the year. Too bad–we would have liked another day

Two days in Escalante, UT (visit #3)–Big Trip #3
We visited Escalante in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Read about our first visit in 2016 here, and our second visit in 2018 here. Northern Utah is great, but southern Utah is really special. There’s something about those red/orange/white/swirly deserts that keeps us coming back. This was our third visit to Escalante; read

Four days in Park City, UT (visit #2)–Big Trip #3
We visited Park City in October 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Read about our visit in 2018 here during Big Trip #2. Park City is a fun stop. The hiking is incredible, the food and cocktails are delicious, and with a big commercial area near the campground, you can easily restock supplies and run

Two days in Ketchum, ID–Big Trip #3
We visited Ketchum in August 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. This was a (literal) turning point in our trip: Initially we’d planned to scoot farther west, to see Crater Lake and Lassen Volcanic, visit some friends in Oregon and Reno, and return to Great Basin… and then all those forest fires all over the

Three days in Sandpoint, ID–Big Trip #3
We visited Sandpoint in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Read about our second visit in 2022 here. This was the point in the trip where we were supposed to turn north and head for Banff, long on my travel wish list! But alas, due to stupid Covid and the US’s inept handling

Two days in Kalispell/Whitefish, MT–Big Trip #3
We visited Kalispell and Whitefish in September 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. Glacier National Park was incredible, but we were ready for fewer people and more hiking with Bugsy, so we relocated a bit to the west to hit a different section of Flathead National Forest. Two neighboring towns appealed to us as potential

Four days in New Orleans, LA (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip
We were in New Orleans as part of our Southeast Lollipop trip in January 2020. Read about our second visit in 2021 here and our third visit in 2024 here. A big city has to be special for us to take the Airstream there: in addition to having fun and/or interesting things to do and

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
