The Dam and Vegas Baby !!!
We drove in from Williams to Nevada on another beautiful sunny day. We enjoyed the pool and site of our campground and woke up early to visit the Dam and try to get tickets for a show on the strip.
 |
| More wide open spaces |
 |
| These mountains have some strange formations at the top. |
 |
| I didn't know I had a Ranch Rd. |
 |
| These are just more some strange rock formations |
 |
| Sometimes the photo just doesn't do justice to the scenery |
 |
| This is the new bypass bridge finished a year ago(so new it wasn't recognized on our GPS) |
 |
| Lake Mead in the distance, which was created by the Hoover dam. |
 |
| Still didn't see any Big Horned Sheep |
 |
| This was a very nice campground except we were located next to the billboard which the Pigeons used as a hangout |
 |
| Lake Mead |
 |
| Interesting stuff huh |
 |
| Dam from the Nevada side |
 |
| Pam was really enamored with this bridge |
 |
| Dam from Arizona side with intake towers |
 |
| Looking down the dam wall from the top |
 |
| I think it took 4 years to build |
 |
| The memorial to all the workers that lost their life building the Dam |
 |
| The new Visitor Center |
 |
| This is how the workers accomplished much of the work on the Dam |
 |
| We were not sure which side this plaque was on |
 |
| Dammed water |
Vegas BABY !!!
 |
| My Dad once told me, "the best way to double your money in Vegas is to FOLD it and put it back in your pocket |
 |
| Some of the sights we saw on the Strip |
 |
| They were shooting a Volleyball commercial at one of the hotels |
 |
| and Pam wouldn't let me leave till they got it right. |
 |
| This was not our RV campground. |
 |
| A pretty store I was pretty sure we didn't want to buy anything in, almost spelled Nannette correct |
 |
| Wolfgang PUCK restaurant in Crystal's mall |
 |
| Some interesting displays |
 |
| Worlds biggest blowdryer |
 |
| You would have to be pretty tall to wear these pearls, so we didn't get them. |
 |
| The flag on this building was actually swaying in the breeze |
 |
| Apparently this is what the Devil wears |
 |
| This was on a bridge over the strip so the traffic doesn't have to stop for pedestrians |
 |
| The front half of the bike looked good. |
 |
| This Architect must have been drunk when this design was dreamed up |
 |
| This Vette rented for $229/day, so we decided we would walk |
 |
| Pam wanted to get a few pics with these around her neck but the lines were too long |
 |
| M&M World was about the only thing we could afford after doubling our money in the Casinos |
 |
| Street performers |
 |
| MGM |
 |
| Emeril's |
 |
| CSI: The Experience |
 |
| New York, New York |
 |
| View from Bridge |
 |
| Circus, Circus |
 |
| Monte Carlo |
 |
| Trams running between Casinos |
 |
| That's water running down the walls |
 |
| McDonald's sign at night |
 |
| We had go back at night to see the strip lit up |
 |
| I think the people were more lit up then the Strip |
 |
| We went here for dinner |
 |
| This guy was always giving directions |
 |
| This way to the Beach |
 |
| We tried to get tickets, but they wanted an arm and leg |
 |
| and I had just lost my ass in the casinos, |
 |
| so we passed, cause I couldn't drive like that. |
 |
| This guy must have gave good directions cause they Bronzed him |
 |
| These girls must have lost their shirts in the casinos |
 |
| This was some registration desk |
 |
| Pam liked these lights |
 |
| That's all folks |
