The ninth state of the trip — a clouded-out aurora watch at McLain State Park, a north wind that turned Lake Superior into a beach overnight, then the Keweenaw: 19 tons of native copper at the Seaman Mineral Museum, a cog railway down into Quincy Mine, and 360-degree views from Brockway…
Four nights on Lake Superior’s South Shore — dinner at a social club in Bayfield, the Wallflowers at The Big Top with hometown friends of 35 years, four pounds of blueberries we never meant to pick, and a five-mile hike above the sea caves at Meyers Beach…
E-bikes on the paved trails of Itasca and a walk straight across the Mississippi, then a third national park at Voyageurs — eight hours and 55 miles among three-billion-year-old islands, and a twilight cruise at sunset…
Six nights of dry camping at the Airstream International Rally, where 986 Airstreams filled the lots around us — and then, for something a little more peaceful, a night under dark skies in the International Peace Garden…
A two night stop in Medora — a musical on a stage that opens to the buttes at sunset, the 36-mile scenic loop through Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and the Presidential Library that opened this July 4th…
Wes, Hailey, and Ben towed in from Missoula to side-by-side river front sites, and together we climbed one of America’s most scenic drives — topping out near 10,900 feet with hidden lakes and alpine vistas as far as the eye can see…
The wildest winds kicked up and we watched a fire develop right where we meant to stop for the night. Days later, a site alongside Rock Creek in the Custer National Forest where, for the first time in nearly two weeks, we rested…
A bald spot on a tire, a surprise destination, and the Cog Railway climbing 7,800 feet to the top of Pikes Peak. We traveled three states and two National Parks for a total of 1,500 miles in 8 days…
Continuing our journey with the girls, we traveled the short distance to Great Sand Dunes National Park. I predict they will remember the blowing sand more than the actual sledding…
With limited groceries, we continued our journey toward Carlsbad, NM. The thousands of bats flying out of the cave was truly amazing…
A few weeks ago Tom and I discussed taking the girls along for the first week of our 10 week journey. Hold on tight, it’s going to be a busy eight days…
It has been a minute since I have shared updates of our travels in 2026. While we may have been streaming sunsets differently the past few months, we wanted to give you an update on what we’ve been up to…
Last night was our 250th night of camping in Belle, our 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud 25 FBT. We enjoyed the company of new friends and a fittingly beautiful sunset at the Vineyards Campground in Grapevine, Texas.
Not all RV parks are created equal. These five resorts went above and beyond — the kinds of places we'd return to in a heartbeat.
After multiple trips in the Airstream, these five state parks have stood out above the rest — for their scenery, their campgrounds, and the memories we've made there.
Passing through what I believe to be the most breathtaking drive of the park, the Sierra del Carmens grew closer and more impressive with every mile...
We arrived at The Maverick RV Campground around 3:30 p.m. The cold hadn't set in yet. Once the weather cleared, we visited the largest State Park in Texas...
From Marfa and all of its quirkiness, the Chihuahuan Desert, the Davis Mountains, the incredible night sky, and now Big Bend National Park...
In order to avoid the ice and snow predicted for the Davis Mountains and the I-10 corridor, we are moving as far south as we can without crossing the Rio Grande...
Two weeks in! Last week was spent enjoying the luxuries of long showers and spacious spaces at Wes and Hailey's in Missoula...
Idaho, Washington, and finally Oregon. Miles of rolling green hills, a chance encounter with a farmer named Bill, and the start of ExplOregon...
After a quick sleepover north of Salt Lake City, we traveled to Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve in Idaho. Idaho is a new state for both of us...
Upon our arrival at our campsite, setup was quick. We had access to electricity only. We were really looking forward to being in one place for three nights...
Monday, May 12th we began our 21st trip in the Airstream. These first four days have been drive days as we worked our way up to Moab, UT and then on to Missoula...
