    Three nights in Austin, TX (visit #6)–Tucson for Christmas trip

    We were in Austin in January 2024, as part of our Tucson for Christmas trip. Read about our previous visits here: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, and again a few weeks later in 2021. Oh man we love Airstreaming in (to?) Austin. The location of the campground, the food, the weather (well, usually), the running, the beer, the music… it’s just…

  • Portland, ME addendum: two nights in Portland sans Bugsy and Airstream

    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…

  • Two nights in Homosassa, FL–Florida in January trip

    Two nights in Homosassa, FL–Florida in January trip

    We were in Homosassa Springs in January 2022 as part of our Florida in January trip. Spoiler: FINALLY WE SAW MANATEES AND IT WAS GLORIOUS!!! In our original route-planning, we were shooting for a stay in Crystal River, just north of Homosassa, but couldn’t get a campsite there. Both towns are wintertime manatee meccas as the…

    One night in Eastpoint, FL (visit #2)–Winter Warmth trip

    We were in Eastpoint in February 2021 during our Winter Warmth trip. Read about our previous visit in 2020 here. Florida’s Forgotten Coast is a real hidden gem! It’s much quieter and less commercial than your average Florida coastal area, with small towns and powder-sand beaches, seafood galore, and a wonderful state park. We love…

  • 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…

  • Four days in St Augustine, FL (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip

    Four days in St Augustine, FL (visit #1)–Southeast Lollipop trip

    We were in St Augustine as part of our Southeast Lollipop trip in January 2020. Read about our second visit in 2022 here. Pretty little St Augustine is VERY touristy, especially around the holidays. Here’s the first impression I jotted down on our initial trip into downtown: “Holy hell people everywhere.” The holiday crowds were…

    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…

  • Two days in Beverly, MA–Acadia Loop trip

    Two days in Beverly, MA–Acadia Loop trip

    We visited Beverly in May 2019 during our Acadia National Park trip. We love the Boston area: we lived in Charlestown for two years in the Aughts and try to visit J’s mom just north of Boston often. Taking the Airstream to Beverly, though… let’s just say we learned an important lesson. Airstreaming in New…

  • Fish Tacos: a photo essay

    Fish Tacos: a photo essay

    Hello! I haven’t written anything lately because after about nine months living full-time in the Airstream (which deserves its own post) we’ve moved into a regular non-wheeled house. Boring, right? We’re starting to get antsy to take the Airstream out again so hopefully I’ll have an interesting trip to report on soon. A recent email…

  • Three days in Wilmington, NC

    Three days in Wilmington, NC

    We visited Wilmington in February 2017 while full-timing in the Airstream in Virginia. Our trek from Central VA to Wilmington, NC went through our friends’ driveway in Virginia Beach. It’s not the most direct route, but it was the ideal one for us. Bugsy rabidly enjoyed her first true beach experience and the humans were…
