  • Two nights in Indianapolis, IN–Big Trip #3

    Two nights in Indianapolis, IN–Big Trip #3

    We visited Indianapolis in August 2020, as part of Big Trip #3. And we’re off! We packed our face masks and hand sanitizer and hit the road for the Covid-killing sunshine and fresh air of the Rockies. First stop after a long driving day from VA was Indianapolis, home to good beer, interesting touristy stuff,…

  • Three days in Eastpoint, FL (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip

    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…

    Asheville Favorites

    We first wrote this post in 2018 after our fifth Asheville visit, but we’ve kept it up to date with our favorites since then! As of this writing, we’ve taken the Airstream to Asheville FOURTEEN times (we think–we stopped writing a post for each visit and think there was one between #11 and #12 in…

  • Six+ months (!) in Crozet, VA

    Six+ months (!) in Crozet, VA

    We full-timed in the Airstream the first half of 2018. We’ve stayed in a lot of campgrounds across and up and down the US (see where on this map!), and Misty Mountain Camp Resort in the village of Crozet, just outside Charlottesville, Virginia, is the nicest campground we’ve found–which is lucky for us, as we…

  • 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. But while researching this trip’s itinerary, J discovered that St Louis is one of the rare big cities that has…

  • Two days in Alpine, TX (visit #1)–Big Bend Loop

    Two days in Alpine, TX (visit #1)–Big Bend Loop

    We visited Alpine in January 2018 as part of our Big Bend Loop trip. Read about our subsequent visits here: late 2018, and 2021. West Texas is a really unique and wonderful place. It’s hard to describe the culture–kind of artsy hippie meets the Wild West–and the physical setting is otherworldly. On our big trip two years…

    Eight days in Asheville, NC (visit #4)

    We visited Asheville in October 2017. Check this link to see our many other Asheville posts! Yes, we took the Airstream to Asheville again! Are you tired of hearing about Asheville? Because I have more to say about it. I plan to do a quick overview of this eight day trip, and then a separate…
