Quickie fall loop: Erwin, TN – Asheville, NC – Lake Lure, NC
We did this loop from November 15 to November 20, 2021. We live in central Virginia, and when we want to take the Airstream out for a few days our usual quickie destination is Asheville. We’ve been there a bunch...
One day in Pigeon Forge, TN
Pigeon Forge (and Gatlinburg next door), to us, is only worth visiting as a gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We did not like the town at all, but if you have read this blog at all you should...
One night in Nashville, TN (visit #5)
This was our fifth time taking the Airstream to Nashville! I’m just going to reuse the intro paragraph from Visit #4 here: Nashville was our second-to-last stop on Big Trip #3, because it’s well-positioned for heading home from Out West, and...

Two days in Nashville, TN (visit #4)
Nashville was our second-to-last stop on Big Trip #2, because it’s well-positioned for heading home from Out West, and because it’s a super fun town with a great urban camping situation. Read about our previous Nashville visits: ONE, TWO, THREE,...
One night in Nashville, TN (visit #3)
After spending a few days with family in NC and GA, we are officially setting out on our two-month Big Trip 2! First (third?) stop on our way west: Nashville, an urban camping destination we love, just for a night. Read...
Trip planning: Asheville, Nashville, Pisgah/Nantahala…
In my opinion, trip planning is almost as exciting as trip taking! We’re starting to think about our biannual Asheville Airstreaming pilgrimage, and wondering what other explorations we can cram in while we’re out and about. Right now, we’re leaning...
