nice pics at least you made a fun drive out of it!

I drove like 4 miles to pick up my car and got to watch my friend and his wife cry when i drove away!

 

As much of the Hoover Dam as we saw...

That is not Hoover Dam - that is the Pat Tillman - someone else bridge. As of this past fall the road over the dam is closed to traffic. The dam was to your left and below you a couple of hundred feet. This is why you were not able to see it.

The Hoover Dam was completed 2 years ahead of the due date and was under budget. The bridge by comparison was well over budged and took nearly 3 times as long to build as the dam.



Welcome to the family - a great adventure to have - now it is time for roads with some bends in them.

 

Awesome road trip. Thanks for sharing your pictures.

 

beautiful photography on your friend's part. really captures the beauty of our country. congrats on the car and post up in the UMW section so we can all meet up!

 

I think you're an impostor - no accountants are as hip as you and the deadline this year was the 18th. Enjoy the car.

 

haha it was the 18th, but I was done that Saturday pretty much. Went into work on Monday and shot rubber bands around.

 

I was not aware of that. Good to know though.

Is there even a way to see it now? We drove around a bit and couldn't figure it out.

 

Flagstaff is a beautiful area. Some pics of mine from when I drove through a few years ago.

 

Wished my road trip was as interesting. I had a dreadful 10 hour drive from Tennessee to Virginia on pretty much a 2 lane freeway with absolutely nothing interesting to see, and ran in to a big storm as I came back home too.

 

Yeah, good trip! My car looks almost exactly like yours, and I bought it in Flagstaff so yeah, those roads are real familiar, lol. And how was the road trip with your friend? I might do something similar going to Socal, but not sure yet.
