Trip recap: Thanksgiving Mountains loop
Happy belated Thanksgiving! Once again, I was so behind on trip posts that I didn’t bother writing a planning post for this trip. My family has a Thanksgiving tradition of gathering at my sister’s in the North Carolina piedmont the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and J and I like to bring our own guest room and…

Trip recap: October WV/NC Mountains loop
Hello! Because I’ve been so behind on writing posts about our May loop around the Carolinas, I didn’t bother to write a planning post for our October trip, so here’s the planning and recap all at once! We had plans with friends in the West Virginia mountains in early October, so used that as an…

Trip recap: May Carolinas loop
Forgive us if it takes a while to get back into our normal writing groove. Looking at photos and trip details without Bugsy here makes us sad, but we know we’ll want to be able to reference our travel notes in the future, so we’re trying to get back on that horse. We ended up…

Carolinas in November: Retrospective
In November 2024, we made a big loop down the South Carolina coast and back up through central SC and into the NC mountains. We had a ton of fun, ate and drank and played a lot, saw nature and art and history, and would love to do a variation on this trip again in…

Tucson for Christmas Trip: Retrospective
We were on the road from 12/10/23 to 1/14/24 for our Christmas trip to Tucson. We had some lofty goals this trip: obviously we were going to spend a solid chunk of time in Tucson for Christmas with family, but we also wanted to get all the way out to Death Valley, and hit Austin…

Big Trip #4: Retrospective
Big Trip #4 was in fact a BIG trip! We covered a lot of ground and had all sorts of memorable experiences, and that’s why it took me almost four months to finish writing all the trip posts. My bad. But I love writing these retrospectives a few months after we get home because it…

Big Trip #4 – Best places we ate
While we were working on the Big Trip #4 Retrospective post, I had fun putting this one together. No, it’s not about our favorite restaurants! Here are the best places we ate on Big Trip #4, in chronological order:

Florida in January: Retrospective
We were in Florida from 1/2 to 2/2/2022. It seems obvious, but: spending January in a warm place is a great idea. We weren’t sure if we’d like spending so much time in Florida, and while we didn’t love all of the Florida we saw, we did love some and would return to a few…

We went somewhere warm in February
Mostly, anyways. We also ended up in Texas during the end-times freezing temperatures and power and water outages. Other than that, it was a wonderful trip! Here’s your teaser while I start to work on the trip posts. We had extremely spotty campground internet service while traveling, which is my excuse for not posting anything…

Big Trip #3 Retrospective
Big Trip #3 was in Fall 2020; you should also read about Big Trip #1 in 2016, Big Trip #2 in 2018, and Big Trip #4 in 2022! This trip was a little weird. Wildfires altered our route: our initial trip plans included Oregon and California, but after experiencing the smoke in Montana, we rerouted.…
