So today we left Las Vegas at 9 am and it was already 92 degrees outside. Can you even believe that? I am pretty sure I could not live in that heat all summer long unless I was in the water non-stop.
We visited the Hoover Dam and our dads did the Dam Tour. The boys are too young so we only did the power plant tour. A little bit of history for you... The Hoover Dam was built in 5 years under budget and faster than originally planned in the 1930's for less than a million dollars. The bridge that now spans above it took 5 years to build at a cost of 10 million dollars. Hmmm, when did we function better as a country???
We left the Dam and headed to Arizona for the Grand Canyon. The boys began working hard to earn their badges.
J and I are talking about taking this same trip again in 10 years with the boys. I can't wait to do this same picture above and put them side by side in a frame. I love my boys- all 5 of them!
