Nothing Before Hoover Dam

Nothing, Arizona

Because Nothing, Arizona is better than Absolute Nothing.

Hoover Dam in Arizona

This view from the Arizona side of the Hoover Dam might not exist in the future.

Hoover Dam in Arizona

Almost two years ago, I took this exact same photo, except back then, the water level was higher, and if you look into the background of this new shot, you will see the construction work going on for the new bypass bridge. When that bridge is finished, the view from the Arizona side of the dam could disappear. This evening, we are driving to Shoshone, California, for a night of soaking in the natural hot spring the Shoshone Inn has on tap before driving into Death Valley National Park tomorrow morning. No, we did not stop in Las Vegas for a raucous night of gambling; I suppose the only thing we are really interested in with Vegas is a visit to the Liberace Museum.

  1. The reason the water level has lowered is because of the number of illegal imagrants flooding into our country and drinking our tap waters and for tourists who insist on soaking in "natural" hot springs which severely contaminate the ground waters …how about saving some for the fish guys?!?!?
