Hoover Dam,Grand Canyon & Sedona

We have not had internet access for the last few days. We left the Heppners and continued on East from Los Angeles area. We passed through Las Vegas and saw an amazing show called Le Reve. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to see such an amazing show. It was a combination of a Cirque Du Solea show combined with dance all in water and 100 feet up. It was truly amazing to see. We had front row seats and had the water 3 feet in front of us.


We then travelled through the mountains again to Hoover Dam. They age building a huge bridge beside the dam and we had a perfect view as we drove by.

We walked onto the dam and took a good look over to see how it was built so many years ago.

As we drove on towards the Grand Canyon we took many opportunities to stop and rock collect along the way. We drove down many back roads in search of the best stones and found by accident some very cool petraglyph drawings in a remote creek bed in the middle of nowhere.

THE GRAND CANYON!!!!!








The Grand Canyon is so beautiful and amazing, but the area around Sedona is just as amazing and beautiful. This is where we are right now and we LOVE it. Tomorrow will be filled with hiking, rock collecting and picture taking.
