We’ve been waiting for this one for 365 days. . . . Urban Air in Logan Ohio! This is the second year for this venue, the creation of Kirk McKeller. If you want to read all about Urban Air, click here to visit the official website https://wakeupdowntown.com May 1, Wednesday Cleaned-up and repacked with a two-day breather from the Great Smoky Mountains, we headed out at 9:00 a.m. for a 4-hour trip to Logan, Ohio . . . just southeast of Columbus. Hometown nearest Hocking Hills State Park, the location is ideal for a little metropolitan camping, while being able to sneak off to nature through the beautiful ravine featuring Old Man’s Cave. The “staging” area for the rally was the County Fairgrounds, and when we arrived trailers were lined up and primed to be led to downtown parking at sun-up. All afternoon the number of trailers increased and our circle of chairs got bigger as we hang out. Last year it was mostly NOVA folk that adopted this pre-rally strategy, but this year at least 50 other trailers were in on this scheme! In small groups we walked the blocks to downtown restaurants for dinner, or cooked out at the fairgrounds.. The temperatures peaked at 85 with a stiff breeze, but rapidly cooled off in the evening for a comfortable overnight. As it got darker at the Fairgrounds we noticed some very strange reflections on the many of the silver trailers . . . it was almost as if something extra-terrestrial was trying to signal us from above! NOVA was harboring a little stranger among the group, and this was our first sense that contact was trying to be established. You'll be reading all about this throughout my Urban Air Reports.

We don’t go camping any more . . . we go ‘streamin’ ! The “SIlvermine and His” is our 2018 25' Airstream Serenity with Salsa interior and front twin beds., and ‘streamin’ is the name we use to describe our adventures. Stream along as we document everything from weekend trips to longer summer excursions and full-blown vacations. You know what they say: if you’re not in an Airstream – you’re just camping!
