Marfa, TX, Part 1.
Our first day in Marfa was spent getting settled, checking out the town and laundry...but it was all fun.
Marathon, TX: The Good, The Bad and The Loud

Dinosaur Valley State Park, Texas
After 3+ months of not being able to enjoy camping because of the heat, I probably would’ve raved about Dinosaur Valley State Park no matter what. In fact, it actually rained while we were there, but I still didn’t complain because at least it wasn’t over 100 degrees!
This camping trip had so much fun built...

Bluebonnet Ridge RV Park Review
We've stayed in lots of RV parks since becoming Airstreamers, but the Bluebonnet Ridge RV Park is the first one we've lived in as fulltimers. Luckily, it was a great first fulltiming experience for us. Here's why....

Lake Tawakoni, Texas
The appeal of Lake Tawakoni began when I saw an article online about the ”Giant Communal Spider Webs of Lake Tawakoni“. Given my increasing fascination with the animals of Texas, this was definitely something that I needed to see, maybe in order to conquer my arachnophobia-instilling bite from 2007. (There are 3 photos – arachnophobia,...
Ft. Griffin, Part 2
There was so much to write about from our trip to Ft Griffin, that I had to divide it into two posts!
The Fort
We didn’t get to see the actual remains of the fort until Sunday morning. We were fully rested and full from Saturday Night Smores so we decided a walk around the fort...
Longhorns, Forts and Fishing
Hail. It’s the one word you don’t want to read in the forecast when you’re planning a camping trip in an Airstream. Deke took off Friday so we could have a 3 day weekend in Atlanta State Park, so all week I’d been watching the weather — and all week it said ‘hail on...
You get what you pay for.
Sometimes the best things in life are not free.
Deke recently got a job offer at id software in Dallas, so last week we packed up everything we would need for a week or so and headed south to The Big D.
We left Chicago on a “unseasonably cold” Monday and took, what was for us, a...
