Sept 19 and 20

Sept 19 Today we arrived in Glasgow, Montana. On exploring the town we came upon our first Albertsons grocery store since we left home. We are having Spaghetti for dinner tonight so we bought some "real west coast hot French bread" and some Gold and Soft margarine that we couldn't find on all our travels. ("we're living in luxury").
Outside of Glasgow is Fort Peck Dam. The World Almanac lists the dam as the largest earth filled dam in the USA. It was the first dam built on the Missouri river basin. It was authorized by President Franklin Roosevelt and was built in 1933 during the depression. The peak employment was 11,000 people who came to small towns around Glasgow. Many more people came to Montana for work and setting up many businesses to supply the needs for building the dam.
At the dam there is a museum which has many artifacts that were uncovered during construction. There were dinosaur (picture) fossils found and more than 400 specimens that include a scull of a Tricera (picture) on display. This museum was run by the Corp of Engineers and had a lot of interesting information on how the dam was built and the towns developed.
