Hello dear Family:
Today we drove to Boulder City...about 20 miles from Vegas to tour the Hoover Dam. We went underground into the tunnels where they re-routed the water from the Colorado River to Make Lake Mead and build the Dam!! Amazing!!!! The Lake Mead water level has never been so low as today. The guide suggested we drink more beer and liquor while we are here and less water!! Ha!!
It is cool today and it started raining as soon as we left the DAM!! We stayed in the trailer tonight as we're having thunder showers.....again!
All is well...tomorrow night we hope to see the Beatles Production "Love" at the Mirage Hotel ....and maybe Garth Brooks live on Fri. or Sat.
Stay well..................we miss you all..................Love Kim and Linda
Lake Mead..."man made" on the other side of the DAM
Boulder City, Nevada ..home of the 5,000 workers who built the DAM
The gypsies at Lake mead, Nevada
the New Bridge we drove over, joining Arizona and Nevada over the Colorado River and the Hoover Dam.
The Back of the DAM on the Lake Mead side
This is the terrain they worked with!!!
