| Hoover Dam & the Colorado River |
I had seen photographs of this huge structure and also a documentary on tv, firstly I never thought I would ever get to visit and secondly did not think I would ever want to. The thought of walking along that tiny road across that huge expanse with a lake on oneside and a huge drop down to the river on the otherside was not on my schedule at all. The reason is I dont like heights at all. |
|  | A huge construction Its hard to imagine that this huge construction was built in the 1930's without the modern equipment that it now used in the construction industry. It is truly amazing and putting my fear of heights aside decided I could not miss visiting here when I had the chance. I am so glad I did. |
