12.00 Pay Day! Hooray! The only day of the month I like to see roll around. I am broke already. In fact I was broke before I got the money.
(Just thinking how I used to lay in bed till ten o’clock at home)

Speaking of rolling around, this blog wouldn't be complete without talking about the iconic Red Buses ("Jammers") in Glacier National Park. The Red Buses have taken thousands of people on park tours throughout the years. The current fleet was introduced the year Robert was there - 1936. Even today, the fleet is mostly made up of those 1936 buses.
The oak frame buses were made by the White Motor Company specifically for park use. They have a roll down top could be driven up and down the Going-to-the-Sun Road to provide excellent sight-seeing. You can still do this today. I've included a link below which provides some interesting facts about the buses.
On a side note, Robert's sister turned 19 on this day. Happy birthday Pauline!
