Hoover Dam by hjbenson

Hoover Dam

We left Las Vegas to drive to Phoenix, AZ for a week's vacation. On the way we stopped at Hoover Dam. It is as impressive as I have read about it. The amount of cement used could have paved a highway from San Francisco to New York.

Nice point of view. When my sisters and I went to Hoover Dam it was 124 degrees... and we walked across the dam and back!
