the result

or more like a home.  a beaver's home that is.  this is a beaver home we spotted on the way up the mountain.  later we did catch a glimpse of him but i wasn't quick enough with the camera.

hoover dam

took a boat ride to Hoover dam about the only way you can see the bridge.  when we lived in ariona we drove over the dam many many times getting to reno where family was.  after 911 and the restrictions on bridges tehy moved the highway to way above the dam.  we did cross over the highway as well and you can't see anything but a barrirer.  next time we might take the dam tour I guess from there you can walk across the bridge and see more. 



by the way thanks to Kate at little somethign for the tutorial on doing frames in photoshop.  i added a link in my tip section but you can check her page out here

in Boulder city there is a entrance sculpture that I just loved

is there water in the desert?

and we took a little ride on this to find out where it would take us.  anyone know?



can you see what is in the distance??

fog and water

taken from phone so not the best but it was really pretty to see the water flowing so fast over the damn today.  Although the icy rain that was falling was not so fun.  Lots of accidents car and tripping.  Nearly biffed myself several times.

I love where I live and work. Every day I walk the mail down to city hall and I pass the river and dam that runs through our downtown area. There is a little spot behind city hall where you can walk down to the dam. I don't have time for that walk during work but have done it several times and never get over the power of the water flowing over the dam, especially in the spring time.
