Hoover Dam has a fascinating history and its well displayed for all visitors to see. This is John standing overlooking the dam but looking at this enormous bridge that goes over it!
Three Good Things:
1 Confiscated one iPad, 1 games console, 2 remotes and hid them. Evening turned out well with the whole family participating.
2. Places to sit while trekking around this huge edifice.
3. The sausages here are so nice!
I've been there. Did you do the tour?? We went right inside the thing! When we were there years ago they were building that bridge from the outside inside. It was quite the sight!
A superb shot with Mr M surveying the magnificent surrounds . !! I admire your braveness in confiscating all those gadgets and had a little chuckle to myself !! -- but it did seem to have worked at least over your evening mealtime !
Almost a space age scene, John could be standing in his very own space invader ship overlooking Mars.
Well done re gadgets, I expect all really enjoyed your family evening. It's like playing family games you don't know what fun it is until you try!
@summerfield Nope, Vikki -it was me who took all their gadgets!. They just went to the bedrooms and played for hours and hours! So I made it a bit more difficult!
A fantastic picture of the dam and the new bridge and John too of course. We found it exciting to be able to walk from one state to another across the top of this.
applauding your #1!
Fantastic view and I like that he lends perspective. The compression makes it appear almost like a beautiful back-drop on a set. Wonderful and I'm glad to see you're able to get out a bit (heat hopefully backing off a bit).
@maggiemae LOL, Maggie! I looked at the photo on my iPhone and I thought there was an angled shield attached to the terrace with the lines and cables I saw. Thought it might be added so upset grandparents didn't jump over the edge! :) :) :)
Wow! We've been here so many times, but not since this new bridge was constructed. Looks like it has really changed the landscape. Great shot. I like tat you got John in it. Gives it a feeling of its size..
Well done re gadgets, I expect all really enjoyed your family evening. It's like playing family games you don't know what fun it is until you try!
Love your signature too!! :)
