Here are the shots of Hoover Dam I promised. it was an incredible site to see! My brother & i grabbed the tour for $10 and went all the way down to the power-plant! Amazing how this was built! For more info on this magnificent achievement, see Hoover Dam

Hoover Dam, finished 2 years ahead of schedule!

The North Side.

Me on the North-Side looking South.

Spill over tubes!

Looking North holding back the waters of lake Meade!

Beautiful! Of all the times I have been in that area, I never had the chance to stop and check it out. Someday I'll get there though.

When I flew over Hoover Dam on my helicopter tour, the bridge was not even connected at both ends. It looks like they're making great progress on it. Any idea when it will be finished?
