Wake up and leave Crapface's place at 9:30. Go get car alarm for Mike's van (early birthday present). While they were installing it, we head to a Wifi hotel and start our blog. Mike gets a Juicy Lucy and I have two bloody marys. We book our campground and set up our BWCA trip. When we are finished, we pick up the van. Mike and I are once again excited to be back on the road again. We go two blocks and realize the headlights are not working. We take the van back and wait another 2 hours-total 4 1/2 hours! Mike looks at me and says "Maybe we should not go on our trip. Maybe I should just sell her." I told him that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. We are not throwing the towel in yet. In the end, the alarm is installed, the headlights work again, and they even fixed Amber's sassy turn signal. We set off again. Mike gets flipped off and an old bitter lady waves her cell phone at him for going too slow...seriously! We arrive at Grand Marais at 9:30. We set up in five minutes, change into our PJ's, and sip wine down by the shoreline of Lake Superior. As we listen to the waves roll in on the rocky shoreline we realize that we are finally in our element!
