North Carolina wins the prize for most dog-friendly state thus far. Not only are dogs allowed in regular stores where it shouldn’t be an issue (like hardware stores, auto parts stores, etc.), dogs are allowed in some bars. Dogs are a part of the family here. Campgrounds haven’t uncharged us for having a dog. DogsContinue reading “Dog-friendly!”

North Carolina
North Carolina has been a pleasure so far. We’ve had some wonderful hikes, some unique hard ciders, and great conversations.
Virginia in review
Virginia is for lovers, which made it perfect for us. Miracle and I have made many trips to Virginia over the past three years—most of them to see our buddy, Dustin, at his family’s mountain home.
How to make coffee
Few things in life are as essential as coffee—maybe water and oxygen (both ingredients needed to make coffee by the way). Since being on the road, we’ve tried a variety of coffee brewing techniques before settling on Aeropress our morning joe. In this post I will outline the various methods and their pratfalls.
The Toader
I’ve visited my buddy, Dustin, and his family at their mountain home many times over the past few years. This time though, we were there specifically for the annual post-Thanksgiving run held at Blue Toad Cidery in Roseland, VA, the Toader—a 1.51 km race that begins with drinking a hard cider, continues on to aContinue reading “The Toader”

Mugs of pour-over coffee. “This is van life,” they proclaim. And, sure, it is. You can eat great while camping. But what everyone really wants to know is what happens on theContinue reading “Pooping”
Playlist: Kentucky
Ohio’s southerly neighbor boasts some of the best horse racing in the country, the best booze in America, and the home of bluegrass tunes. We have three heavy hitters lined up for this state with a Dylan song coming in on a technicality.
Podcast: Geoff
Over a year ago, we were camping in Ohiopyle, Pennsylvania. It was our first trip in Adie and we had only started to kick around the idea of a VW Bus podcast and a multi-state trip, when we met Geoffrey Heigh. We were walking around the campground when we struck up a conversation with thisContinue reading “Podcast: Geoff”
