Glacier National Park Road Trip (Fall 2022)
Whitefish, Montana Daytrip
September 19, 2022
With all the empty sites, it would have been nice to be more spread out...
We started our day with coffee and baked goods at Odd Fellows Coffee House in Columbia Falls. We missed the morning rush and pretty much had the place to ourselves. I love the exposed brick and funky decor. The coffee was great, but the pastries look better than they tasted.
We drove to Whitefish (an easy 15 minute/10 mile drive) and found an independent bookstore that I wanted to visit. The layout of Bookworks is confusing, as well as cramped, so we didn't linger too long. Of course, I had to support them with a purchase, so I got a couple of books that had been on my radar. Have I read them yet? No, but I will!
We were getting hungry, and I had read great reviews for a BBQ place nearby, so we headed over to get lunch. Piggyback turned out to be a great choice, but the indoor seating is somewhat tight and very noisy, so we moved outside to one of the picnic tables. Shortly after our food arrived, it began to pour! The umbrella kept Rod dry, but the rain poured right off of it onto my side of the bench. It didn't last too long, and of course, my closet was just a few steps away in the parking lot, so I was able to change into dry clothes. Another win for RV travel!
Outstanding pulled pork sliders.
Rod's ribs were very good, too.
If you find yourself in Whitefish, we highly recommend this BBQ joint!
