There was construction everywhere, especially driving near the dam (of course during which time I heard every "dam" joke Steve could concoct) where they are building a new bridge. Steve, having passed that way more often than I have, knew all about the bridge construction. When you read the conversation below, you'll understand why, following said conversation, Steve told me I had to blog it. It's only fair, since I have called out some of his more impressive moments here.
Steve: Wow, that's going to be weird to drive over.
Me: What? The bridge?
Steve: Yep.
Me: Drive on that thing? No way! It's way too steep - they can't have cars drive on that!
Steve: Um...
Me: Seriously! You'd never make it up the side.
Steve: Yeah...so that's the support for the bridge. They're going to put the actual bridge on top.
Oh.
Yep, in my foggy early-morning daze, I thought this was the actual BRIDGE (sorry for the weird angle - we were driving):
Good thing I'm not an engineer. You can see my concern though, were this the actual bridge, yes?

Oh Kate, you are awesome.
We went to the hover dam back in February coming back from Phoenix and I thought the same thing so don't feel stupid! It took me a double take to see what was going on. : )
It was so fun to see you, Kate! I'm glad we finally got together, and we need to do that more often. I have a suggestion, for my sake. Post some pictures of you and your hubby. I don't even remember what he looks like. Do you not post pics of you two on purpose? Just a suggestion. :)
Jeni, you need to get on Facebook! I have tons of pictures on there. I'm paranoid about posting them here since it's not private...I mean, what if someday I acquire a crazy obsessive stalker? Maybe I'll post a few though, just for you :)
