As we sit here at trackside at the Greenville SC Amtrak Station waiting for The Crescent to arrive we've been watching Norfolk Southern freight trains come and go. Just now an intriguing little train pulled in. With it's shiny new looks and unusual equipment, it's...

Road Trip
Downtown Greenville
Our next adventure began a couple of hours ago when we left home after dark to head to the Greenville SC Amtrak Station and The Crescent scheduled to depart at 10:58PM. With some time to spare we checked Yelp! and chose Soby's in downtown for dinner. Good call! Our...
Gigi’s Older Cousin
Gigi had a visitor today! Our friend Nathan is traveling through our neighborhood enroute to a rendezvous with Becky, his wife. While we enjoyed a most salubrious visit with Nathan including some great Virginia wine, the two T@Bs hobnobbed in the driveway comparing...
Coffee Break
Time to pause for a few minutes and savor the scene with a mug of freshly brewed decaf. We've had neighbors drop by to welcome us back to the cove. And we've begun unpacking the truck and the T@B and settling into our mountain house. First things first. We're filling...
Highway Hugs
Just as we were entering Jackson County we heard a car honk and a green CRV passed us. It was none other than our good friend Stan. We pulled off the on the side of Woodfin to get hugs, to swap a few travel tales, and make plans to see each other this weekend! What a...
Return to WNC
It's been a glorious four months since we left these beautiful Smoky Mountains. Today we are returning on a fabulously sunny day. It will be good to settle into the house at Tween Creeks for a bit. We're going to enjoy our deck, and outdoor fire pit, and especially...
Full HookupsÂ
Wytheville KOA. Full hookups including cable TV. We'll get to watch the first game of the World Series. Delivery pizza right to our campsite. Chilling a bit on our last night on the road. We left Tween Creeks on June 26th and we'll return tomorrow, a mere four months...
A nüCamp Day
Late in this trip our T@B's ALDE system's reservoir developed a leak. That gave us one more good reason to come to northeastern Ohio. We contacted Austin and made arrangements to bring Gigi back to the factory for repair this morning. It gave us the chance to also see...
Twisted Time Warp
Five of us piled into Dave's as yet unnamed sparkly blue Jeep Patriot and headed out on an adventure reminiscent of so many of our family adventures in Big Red, our 1978 Jeep Cherokee. As we rolled we rocked to Walk the Moon, The Kingsmen, Cindy Lauper, The...
Chilly MorningÂ
Woke up to temperatures in the low forties, gray skies, and lots of condensation along the metal trim in the clamshell kitchen. We figured out long ago that regardless of how cold it is outside that we have to open both the ceiling fan vent and the window at the foot...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

OUR VERY
LATEST
The Isabella Is Up
It's the newest addition to our T@B lifestyle. We invested in an Isabella T@B 400 Sun Canopy from All Pro Adventures. Manufactured in Denmark, this canopy has been designed specifically for the T@B 400 and is remarkably sturdy and well made. Because All Pro Adventures...
Ameli@ Arrives at TimberCrest
Another rendezvous at TimberCrest and another T@B 400 & Red F-150 Combo! Amanda with Bert, her trusty tow vehicle, arrived towing Ameli@, her home on wheels, after a harrowing drive from Wytheville VA through snow flurries the whole way. Remember that Amanda is a...
Snow Day in TimberCrest
Fortunately we were forewarned by an Accuweather Wintercast alert to our phones, so we disconnected our hoses and protected our dump valves with RV antifreeze last night. Then we hunkered down inside our camper, checked the radar, and settled in for the night...
