Several of us early arrivals have volunteered to help the weekend arrivals. Dubbed the "seasoned veterans" by Allison, the üCamp coordinator, we greet them at the gate, guide them to their site, and in some cases assist with backing and setup. With rain forecast for...

Road Trip
A Time to Mod
When we T@Bbers gather at Winklepleck every year it's a festival of ideas exchanged. We're constantly learning from and inspiring one another and gigging each other to improve our campers. It's happening already with just a handful of campers here in the days leading...
A Bags Dinner
The last two years we have been at Winklepleck to greet Amanda as she arrived prior to üCamp. This year the tables were turned and Amanda was waiting for us. She helped us locate the pedestal we will share with three other trailers and position ours with consideration...
Showers for Everyone
Both Sc@rlett and Eric the Red have spent the Spring getting covered in pollen and then these two days have been collecting road grime. So our first stop in Sugarcreek was at the self service car wash. While we were waiting for the taller and wider bay to become...
Pizza Tonight
First night out. Full hookups so we can flush and sanitize our fresh water tank. Trying Saniclean instead of bleach this time. Also taking time to nest. Many of the things we knew we needed to take just got bundled or bagged and put into the wardrobe. Now it's time to...
Leaving Our Little Place
The time has come and we are on the move. Just as the day lilies, the coreopsis, and the leeks are blooming and the butterflies and hummingbirds are visiting the fuschia, we are headed out. It's a lovely time of year in the North Carolina mountains but the road is...
#OnDownTheRoad
Our friends Patrick & Patty are the YouTube stars of our T@B 400 community with with their every Monday video about T@B 400 features or T@B travel adventures not to mention their fun Mid Week Update every Thursday and their Wine Down Friday videos on Facebook....
Beach Walk Number One
Three miles before breakfast has become our routine. At the house over the winter we've made the walk inside the house, walking circuits around furniture and through the various downstairs rooms or back and forth along the upstairs hall sometimes even up and down the...
T@B Visits
It's a long drive from the mountains of western North Carolina to the beach in South Carolina. Don't ask us why we chose to make the trip in just one day for we have no good answer for that question. But we can say that some good things happened along the way. As we...
Uncovered
While we have been spending the winter scanning old paper records and memorabilia - over eight thousand images so far, Sc@rlett has been snoozing under her cover. When our local friends would ask us, "When's the next trip?", we've responded that we don't have anything...
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
Fifty Years Ago
We’ve been celebrating all year, partied with family and friends in May, and most recently sailed across the Atlantic to celebrate our 50th Anniversary today here in London, England.
Hampstead Heath and Beyond
These last few days we've been getting oriented to our home for the month. With lodgings in the village of Hampstead in northwestern London, we have easy access to Hampstead Heath, a glorious 800 acre park that is a series of footpaths through woods and grassy spaces....
Welcome to Hampstead
It’s been a fabulous day hopefully foreshadowing good things to come as we settle into making the village of Hampstead our home for four weeks!
