Lake Meade, Hoover Dam & the ram (Aug. 21st)

On our way down the hill on our way home from Vegas, we saw this beauty. This happens to be part of Lake Meade & what a gorgeous view!

We then came upon the Hoover Dam area again & decided to stop to check it out a lil better. The water level was low, but it's still pretty amazing to see. Here we are in front of part of it.
Sooo pretty!





This is a view from the look-out area we stopped at (there were lots of them).
I looked over & saw this one couple looking towards the mountain w/a camera, but couldn't see anything that they might have been looking at, until I put the large zoom lens on our camera & checked it out. To my surprise, this is what I saw. I was soooo happy & excited to see a ram! The whole time driving through the mountain areas there I kept saying to Mark that it'd be so awesome to see a ram, but we couldn't find one...until we stopped here.

It's kinda hard to see in the pics here (unless you click & make them larger), but it was such an awesome sight to see this ram standing there so proud! He just looked down at us like, "what are you people doing here?!?" He gave us such great shots too!


So that made our day & the rest of the ride home better. God's creatures & nature are so amazing! We're really pretty blessed to be able to live in a country like this & be able to see such things.
