July 2023 Summer in the south is hot, but luckily it’s a muggy, damp and sultry heat. In need of a respite we headed up to the mountains of Tennessee, to Roan Mountain State Park, where the air was crisp and cool. We’d both been hiking on Roan, but had never camped there. It’s a […]

April 2023 Ok, considering we still don’t think of ourselves as rally people, we do LOVE going to Silver in the City! We are now familar with how everything works- if you want to be on the street, you’ve got to be at the staging area early on Thursday. So we got there even earlier

April 2023 Seeing Le Mis was on Melinda’s to do list- not really a bucket list item, but something she wanted to experience. When the tour came through our area it was obvious that the time was right- and it was only 75 miles away, so it would be a nice evening out, a date

February, 2023 We took some time off from traveling so we could install a new axle, which led to a new underbelly, which led to new insulation and wiring- serious project creep! But then it was off to Savannah for my birthday trip to a warmer clime. We decided to do something different, and took
October, 2022 So we’ve got two Silver in the City rallies behind us now. But they are a small and kind of funky “take over the streets” kind of rally, and we rather like them. But we’ve heard of a pretty large rally even closer to us, in Marion NC. I mean it’s only a

May, 2022- The Trip that Wasn’t This trip wasn’t supposed to happen this way. It should have been listed under the TRAVEL link above, not in the Airstream Adventures blog. When we first started dating in 2019 we had planned a BIG adventure. The end of the world, Patagonia. But then 2020 came and changed

April 2022 We had two more trips before this- 4 soggy, soggy days at Lake Hartwell Army Core of Engineers Campground- the Core Campgrounds are some of the most best in the country, and always worth a try. The other was a Hipcamp, which was interesting, but we had some electrical issues with the truck

July 2021 We needed a getaway from the southern summer heat, and so we headed north, up into the mountains, all the way up to West Virgina. Whatever you may have heard about the “Almost Heaven” state, it is truly one of the most rugged, wild & wonderful states, full of amazing outdoor activities, stunning

April, 2021 Drinking the Kool-Aid We knew when we got Tess that the Airstream lifestyle is kind of like joining a cult. There are cheaper campers, there are bigger campers, there are campers that are in many ways, even better campers than Airstreams. We can’t and won’t even try to argue those points. But people

February 2021 Whenever Melinda asks where I want to go for my birthday getaway, my stock answer is always “south.” When you’re born in the cold, dark month of February it seems you crave sunshine and light. Or at least I do! So we went down to Beaufort South Carolina– not to be confused with
