Hoover Dam - This is me when we visited the Dam in 1965:
This is me in 2004: We did the deluxe Dam Tour. http://www.lasvegastours.com/ or http://www.lasvegasandmore.com/ Cost was $42. It included a buffet lunch, visit to the Ethel M Chocolate Factory, and walk through the "exquisite" Desert Botanical Gardens. Tour duration is 9 hours. The tour leader did a contest to guess the number of gold courses in Las Vegas. I think I remember guessing "40" and I won the contest and a box a chocolate! I was in such great mood. I told a joke on the bus and that's when Martha wanted to pretend that she didn't know me. That's also when I realized that I have alot of my dad in me. |
