One of my mom’s sweet friends, Donna, sent us these adorable t-shirts for Jane and Wilson. The kids love to wear them. They really love to wear them at the same time and match. I can’t tell you how excited they were to get a chance to wear them on our tour of the Airstream […]

Holiday Traditions, AirStream Style
Being a total basic, I love fall. Though I dislike pumpkin spice lattes. Gag! I attribute it to having lived in Florida from ages 0-18 and never getting to experience the change in season. Those Floridians, they’re deprived of basic human joys! Back at home I would spend time to plan out three areas in […]
Celebrating Oktoberfest in Minster, Ohio
Over the weekend, we attended our first fall festival, the long-running Oktoberfest in tiny Minster, OH. There is apparently a dense German population in rural northern Ohio with some cities having a German population greater than 70%, and it seems every town has an Oktoberfest. Minster’s drew thousands of folks from the region, and it […]
Kind Kids
So I’ll attribute this 100% to Daniel Tiger. It has nothing to do with me. I’m not an overly “kind” person. But my kids are! Jane and Wilson have each adopted an adorable trail behavior. When we go for hikes, Jane will take a sheet of stickers and whenever we pass someone else on the […]
Katie’s Weekly B*tch Sesh
Are you tired of me complaining about our really fun life yet? NO? Ok! Good! I’ve thought of something totally gross that I can’t stand about living in the Airstream that I have yet to whine about to you kind folks. Our towels make me wretch. I’m guessing your first thought is that they smell […]

Visiting Children’s Museums on our Journey
Most of our time is spent camping, hiking and biking in state and national parks, but we regularly stay in or near large cities on our travels. When we do, one of the activities that we, especially the kids, enjoy is spending a day at a children’s museum. Today, I’m writing this post from the […]
Day Hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park
On our last stop in the Rockies before descending into the plains on our way east, we visited Rocky Mountain National Park. We camped just outside the park in Estes Park so that we could have a full utility hookup, letting us run our heater all night. In September, fall is in full swing in […]
Biking the KATY Trail, Jefferson City, Missouri
If you’ve not heard of Rails To Trails, it’s the conversion of old railroad passages into multi-use paths for recreation. The KATY trail is one of these Rails to Trails. Stretching over 200 miles across Missouri along the bank of the Missouri River, it is one of the longer trails out there. As we were […]
My Love/Hate Relationship: Hiking with Young Kids
Small hikes with our kids are great. Anything under 3 miles is usually a doable morning activity. Sometimes, we’ll let them both walk and just spend the whole morning doing only a 3 mile trail. This is wonderful. Wonderful in that we’re teaching them to love hiking. Wonderful in that they’re getting exercise and enjoying […]
