Planning again, but shorter and sooner: May three-weeker
As some blocks of activities and obligations shift around on our Spring calendar, we’re seeing the possibility of a three-ish-week Airstream trip in May, and since I love to trip-plan, here I am to type up some ideas. Alas, we don’t have enough time to go all the way to Wind Cave. I had so…

One night in Greenville, SC (visit #2)–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Greenville in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. Read about our previous visit seven (?!) years ago here. From Columbia, it’s just under two hours of interstate driving to Greenville. Why Greenville? It’s a cool little city in Upstate South Carolina, about halfway between Charlotte and Atlanta, in the…

One night in Columbia, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Columbia in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. The main reason we wanted to go to Columbia on our way from the coast to the mountains was Congaree National Park. Yes, there’s a national park hidden away in central South Carolina! Columbia is also the state capital, is the…

Three nights in Hilton Head, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Hilton Head in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Beaufort, we drove less than an hour down to the next Sea Island to the south, Hilton Head. We weren’t sure what to expect there: ritzy resorts mixed with laidback locals’ joints? Ubiquitous tennis and golf culture? Beautiful beaches…

Two nights in Beaufort, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Beaufort in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. Continuing our island hop down the coast of South Carolina, we drove 1.5 hours south from Charleston to Beaufort. Beaufort (BEW-fort, not like BO-fort, North Carolina!) is the second-oldest city in South Carolina, behind Charleston, and ahead of third-place Georgetown. But…

Two nights in Edisto Beach, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Edisto Beach in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Georgetown, we drove a couple hours south to Edisto Beach, chosen for its old-school beach town feel, its scenic state park campground, and the dog-friendly beach itself. Our savvy Atlanta cousin gave us an important tip when we told…

One night in Georgetown, SC–Carolinas in November trip
We visited Georgetown in November 2024 as part of our two-week Carolinas in November trip. From Raleigh, it was a 3.5-hour drive down to Georgetown, the longest driving segment of our two-week trip through the Carolinas. Georgetown is the third-oldest city in South Carolina, behind Charleston and Beaufort, both stops on this Carolinas trip. It was…

To scratch that itch, we’re starting to plan our next Airstream adventure in November. We have two weeks between plans in Southern Pines, NC and Burlington, NC, so that seems like a…

One day in Greenville, SC–Short Southeast Loop
We were in Greenville in November 2017 as part of a short Southeast loop. Read about our second visit in 2024 here. We only had 24 hours in Greenville–lunchtime to lunchtime–but we packed a lot of activity in to that time: lots of walking, followed by snacks, beer, dinner, beer, nightcap, and BISCUITS! Campground Ivy…

Greenville SC – Atlanta – Savannah – Charlotte – Burlington NC–Short Southeast Loop
We did this little loop in November 2017. We love Airstream trip planning! Our challenge for this latest trip: plan a loop that would include visiting family in Atlanta (overlapping with the implosion of the Georgia Dome) and visiting family in Burlington, NC (overlapping with Thanksgiving). The implosion was on the Monday of Thanksgiving week, which…
