LOL -- It Never Quits -- Why I Love Blogging -- March 19, 2016 - II

The other day I blogged about a James Fallows story in The Atlantic in which he provides "eleven signs that a city will succeed."

Number 11: they have craft breweries.

Apparently some folks in Glendive want their city to be on that list. According to The Dickinson Press, Glendive, MT, is getting a craft brewery.

Glendive is one of my favorite cities in the west. In the old days, to get to Williston, I would fly to Billings, and rent a car from there. My last stop before leaving civilization was Glendive, where I stopped at McDonald's, transitioning from I-94 to Montana State Highway 16, to the Bakken.

From the linked story:
Family-owned brewery Cross Country Brewing is eyeing a mid-May opening at its East Allard Street location, where customers will be able to enjoy a variety of brother-brewed beers.
The brewery will be operated by Justin and Lonnie Cross; their two sons, Elliot and John; and their sons' wives, Jenay and Kathy.
John and Elliot share the brewing duties. The two took up brewing as a hobby more than half a decade ago. Opening day should have taps reserved for John's recipes — a brown ale and an American pale ale — and Elliot's recipes — an India pale ale and an Irish red.
Kathy, most likely, will be in the back, watching the books.
