I'll make a trip again and next time see the downstream side. I just didn't have much time that day and was rushing to drive back.

I am guessing that all the electricity and all the drinking water in LV comes from Hoover Dam.

I wonder if natural gas is piped into LV or if it's found locally in the ground there.

I'm also wondering how much the electricity bill is going to be come summer if I have to run the AC all the time. I'm almost thinking it might be best to get a portable AC on wheels and just cool down only the bedroom at night and let the rest of the house stay hot.

I'm going to bend over, and if your leg survives a big kick to my rear end, with no resultant pain, then your leg is healed!
Don't wait for my leg to heal. Just let me whack you with my cane. I may feel better.

Dude it's Vegas, it's probably a thread about the Mayor.

Last spring, I went out to take a few pictures of the dam, and see how the bridge was coming along. Now, I try not to ease drop on other people's conversations, but there were four people (two couples) standing next to me, who were trying to figure out which way the water was flowing.........seriously. Two of them suspected that the water was coming from the lake side, and the other two thought the water was coming from the bridge side. But none of them were absolutely sure. It was kind of funny. But then at the same time, it was somewhat sad, as these same people are actually allowed to vote.

Amazing. I could imagine how the NV & AZ clocks in the intake towers must have confused them even further!
