This weekend Nick and I decided last minute to go camping before the summer was over. Like usual we had a very late start and didn't get to Taylor Falls until night time, pulling into the campsite around 10:30 pm. Surprisingly, being this late on a Sunday night, there were no open spaces! We decided we would try a different campsite about 20 miles down the road until we realized Nicks car was overheating. We pulled into a gas station in downtown Taylor Falls shut off the car went inside to buy some anti-freeze and firewood, all to come back out and have the car not start at all! After getting a jump from one of the locals and it now being 11:30 at night, we decided to stay at the only hotel in town to play it safe. It was secluded and a bit creepy, if you have ever seen the movie Vacancy you know exactly what I'm talking about, I swear they filmed that movie from the room we stayed in. It was quite the road bump but we chose to make the best of it anyways and actually had a really great night checking out one of the local bars and chilling on the patio at the hotel over looking the town

The next day was beautiful and we were able to get a space at the original campground we wanted. We spent the entire day hiking around the river and climbing the rocks. That night we grilled a couple of steaks, had a bonfire and met our extremely nice neighbors. Couldn't have asked for a better day!
What a great day!
