Wednesday our first rainy day

 Since the forecast was for rain all day, we headed into Kalispell to the REI so Rob could replace his hiking boots. We drove ( in the van ) up to WhiteFish and the on to the remote destination of Polebridge, 22 miles from the Canadian border. We stopped for lunch at the Northern Lights saloon, which is about all that is there besides a Mercantile and campground.
