Family Mellmann

We eventually made it out of my folks' garage, but not with Patrick's motorcycle.  Unable to fix the problem, we rented a bike in Massoula so that we could continue our journey. Jörg took the car to Massoula to pick up the rental and the rest of us went as planned to Helena.  Jörg eventually joined us there. The plan had been to ride to Helena and take a boat ride to the Gates of the Mountains, but the last tour was at 2pm and we were too late.   Maybe we'll try again before returning to Livingston. As long as we were standing at the lake, we thought we'd catch a few pictures.

Our departure on Loop #2 into Glacier National Park was delayed by a couple of hours while Jörg, Christian, and Patrick tried to figure out why Patrick' motorcycle wouldn't start. We never solved the problem.
