Bridge Building
During part of the trip we decided to see the Hoover Dam. We went to Las Vegas anyway for a homecoming talk and thought might as well see the Dam while we were there. What we didn't realized is how long it would take to arrive because of all the "dam" traffic. It seemed like a lot of other people had the same idea. We saw where they are building a new bridge for a new part of the freeway. I thought it fascinating the procedure in the building of said bridge, hence the pics. We didn't get out because there wasn't any free parking available and since it was Sunday didn't want to pay for the parking. So all the pictures are taken from the moving vehicle.

The Lake Mead side of the dam.

That's a lot of cable and cement.
Meeting in the middle. It would not be good if they aren't lined up correctly.
