Adventures With the Allams

Nevada Bound!

The Natural Springs at Warm Springs - a recreation area owned by the church.
So interesting and fun to learn about this significant property.

The little fish that feed on your feet if you hold still, drove me nuts.  Loretta loved them, but they
tickled my feet.  And, it just felt weird!  Our feet are in a little natural warm springs.
The water is always about 84 degrees.  There are two pools, but one of them has no fish.

Boulder City, Nevada has the largest herd of mountain goats in America.
Here they just sun themselves in the city park every day.
There were 34 sheep in this herd and others nearby.  It was amazing to all of us.
Loretta walked up very close to get a good picture.  

what an amazing and incredible feat of engineering.  We were in awe of the many things we learned about this dam.
And, it was so great to have our own personal tour guide to tell us all the inside stories.
Fabulous Morning with Nathaniel.

How they accomplished this amazing get in the 1920's and 1930's is such a marvel of talent, grit, determination
and most of all hard, hard work.  It was an awesome experience.  The bridge in the background is
more recent than the dam.  But, it too, is an engineering feat!

We met John Wayne's oldest granddaughter at a John Wayne exhibit in Las Vegas.
Well, howdy about that!
