New book!

"Made in Montana" is a collection of short, nostalgic, laugh out loud stories about growing up in small town Montana that will pull on your heart strings.

Each story will draw you in as if you were growing up right beside Dinodave. It's a must read for anyone who has lived through the joys and heartaches of small town living. This book is especially for those that grew up in the days before cell phones, when each day was an adventure. "Made in Montana" is a kaleidoscope of life stories that will keep you guessing what lies behind each paragraph like the first time you took the Disneyland jungle tour.

About

Dinodave, a high school science teacher, has grown up with dinosaurs in his backyard.  As a teenager, he was tutored by resident paleontologist Diane Gabriel. Dave then went on to Montana State University with a degree in biology.  His appreciation for Montana State was being able to work at the Museum of the Rockies as a preparator and to study under Jack Horner. One of his biggest paleontology thrills has been to go to Mongolia with Jack Horner a few years ago to help dig Psitacosaurus. 

My advance biology class at an amazing Microsite.

The paleo experience will be gathering data from a microsite like my Advanced Biology class did. We found mammal, crocodile, Therapod, Tricetatops, Edmontosaur and even a Pachy Tooth among numerous vertebrae.
