Touring the National Mall and Memorials, Washington, DC

November 8, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

We figured a trip around America wasn’t complete without a visit to our nation’s capital, especially given that the National Park Service manages the National Mall. We stayed with some friends in Virginia and rode the train into Washington, DC, where we hopped off the train at the Smithsonian. We could not have asked for […]

Wild Ponies in the Grayson Highlands, Virginia

November 4, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

While camped in Damascus in the far southwestern corner of Virginia, we drove thirty miles to Grayson Highlands State Park. The park is high in the mountains near Mt. Rogers, and several short trails from the park road and parking areas lead to an open, grassy ridge line, providing long-range, 360 degree views of the […]

Being a Lame Dad in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia

November 3, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Ten years ago on my Appalachian Trail thru-hike, I hiked 38 miles through a day and most of a night to reach Harpers Ferry in time to catch the Friday morning 7am train into Washington, DC. I will never forget the events of this day, and on our Airstream adventure around America, I just had […]

Fall in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

November 1, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

After leaving Harper’s Ferry, WV, we traveled south through Shenandoah National Park in Virginia along Skyline Drive, continuing our mission to spend as much time as possible in the turning leaves of fall. Skyline Drive runs 105 miles through the park from Front Royal, VA in the north to Waynesboro, VA in the south, and […]

Check Niagara Falls Off The List

October 28, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

While we were camped in the Allegheny forest in northwestern Pennsylvania, we decided to take a 90 minute day trip north through Buffalo, NY to visit Niagara Falls. We’re not big on having bucket lists or checking items off lists, but this day trip definitely felt like a list checking activity. We weren’t super pumped for […]

How adventure has made me a better father

October 27, 2016 by Mark Kelley 4 Comments

As Katie and I have both mentioned in the past, one of our primary reasons for traveling is spending more time with our children. While we both worked full-time jobs, we recognized that our kids were growing up quickly and that we were spending a lot more time at work than with them. We determined […]

In Pursuit of Fall: The Best Fall Leaves

October 26, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

When we Denver, Colorado in September, we decided we would route our trip home to North Carolina in a way that maximized our time in peak fall season. We wanted to time our drive to follow perfectly cool fall weather and the changing leaves. We started our quest for fall in the high altitude of […]

Exploring Mammoth Cave National Park, Kentucky

October 18, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Though Mammoth Cave National Park is only eight hours from home in Raleigh, NC, I had not visited the park before now. After a long drive in from St. Louis, Missouri, we camped just outside of the park in Cave City. Though the park is mostly known for its cave, which is the largest in […]

Touring the Airstream Factory, Jackson Center, Ohio

October 17, 2016 by Mark Kelley 1 Comment

As you likely know, we are traveling the country in a 1969 21′ Airstream Globetrotter. The trailer is forty seven years old with an unknown number of miles and misadventures in her past, but she has held together well over the 25,000 miles we’ve travel so far. We love our old Airstream, and it seems […]

The Ledges in Cuyahoga National Park, Hudson, Ohio

October 14, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

While the highlight of our time in Cuyahoga was Bike Aboard!, we had a lot of fun one afternoon exploring The Ledges. Given the rather sedated landscape of the Cuyahoga Valley, full of gently rolling hills and quiet rivers, we were surprised at the visual and experiential awesomeness of The Ledges. The imposing rock ledges […]
