Roadtrip! St. Croix Falls, WI / Taylors Falls, MN

The kiddo and I hit the road at the end of June . . . 

The impetus for the trip was the water adventure park at Wild Mountain up north of Taylors Falls.  The reason for home base to be St. Croix Falls was accommodations, of which options are slim pickins.  Below are links to all the posts from the trip in one handy dandy place, and deep below that some strays



Nice little drive to/from Wild Mountain

Down just east of Osceola, you'll see sign after sign protesting the quarry that's been there for well more than a decade.  I considered this the most vehement.  We stopped at a couple garage sales a few miles away, and I asked one of the locals if the the protest signs were because of environmental concerns?  He said it's about the blasting, explosions



Oakley Park Playground was a nice shady place for the kiddo to burn off some energy

Osceola Skate Park right near the park

Downtown Taylors Falls above, and the river below the dam

The view of the dam from the Wisconsin side, just off downtown


Grinchmobile?  Grinchcycle?  Other than say Comicon, where wouldn't this stand out blazing? I dig it.  Spotted in downtown St. Croix Falls
