Davis Dam Visit

Image
 Sheri and I found ourselves in Bullhead so decided to visit Davis Dam.  It was self guided tour but very informative.  The water goes through sideways unless it flows over the spillway.  I know the dam was being built when WWII started as the workers were diverted to building the airfield in Kingman which they felt had higher priority at the time.

After Christmas to Lake Mead and Hoover Dam

 Day after Christmas is the wrong day to visit Hoover Dam.  It was s crowded and no place to park.  We drove through and took pictures from the car and then headed to Lake Mead for the night.  Tony and I went back to walk the bridge the next day.  The wind was incredible.  At one point it was hard to push forward, but we made it to the center to take a picture of the dam.
