Hoover Dam was a damsite better than staying home! Nully said it was dam big and impressive! We both took photos. I filled the card on my camera but realized when I got back that I need the USB for the Sony in order to upload them. I may be able to upload some from my phone but I will work on that tomorrow...
It has been an enjoyable visit. We had breakfast at the Railroad Pass Casino, and took some photos there, as well...Nully kept offering to take photos of people together at the Dam with their cameras, and I told him he should charge for it! LOL!
I will be making some pineapple upside down cake in a bit. He will take one with him, and I will keep one here...what fun!
The Lake doesn’t look as bad as it did 15 months ago, and that was good. We got some good shots of the marinas and the boats on the water. It was a spectacular morning for sight-seeing, for sure!
Nully said the Lake was not Mead-iocre...
*groan*
Happy happy! My family visited Hoover Dam a looooong time ago, no later than 1974. Maybe I’ll see it again someday.
Unnngh.

Vaguely dam-related. Kris and Willie are still alive; Johnny and Waylon are on to the next thing.
With the phone as the tether, I can’t load the video, so if you would FReepmail it to me, I will be glad to hang onto it until I get back home. Just please mark it as a music link.
I think the Nullster has gone nappy-bye...I would like to, but I want to make the cakes.
I will! Let nully have his napz. I’d send a cat if I could!
KNUCKLES has become addicted to animal crackers.
This dog is weird
heh
Oh, Ash liked any kind of cookies and crackers, until she got sick.
funky Lake Medina is only 4.3% full
whatever lake that is
Near me... Canyon Lake is 897.21 FEET
Level is 11.79 feet
below full pool of 909.00
Knuckles has probably had too many already
lol
Canyon Lake is your water source, if you ever get running water in your abode, so you should care about that a little.
Heh. I remember Beavis & Butthead at Hoover Dam...
Does anybody have any questions? Yes, the young man over there?
Heh. Yeah. I have a question. Is this a “God-dam?” Hehhehheh....
Oh, that reminds me...did Mario and Luigi ever show up and actually do stuff?
They were very busy on Saturday. I had to pick up the beer cans off the ground after they left before the storm hit.
It was 896.8 yesterday
SO we had quite a big rain last night, about 4.5 inches of rain apparently
We lived in San Antonio for 11 years, watching the rainfall and the Edwards Aquifer levels.
Aquifers are wondrous things!
