So many times people may judge a Book by it's cover, or judge a Person by the way they look, or a animal, creature, etc. by the way it looks. There is so much more than what you see on the outside ... When I first saw this Goose along with others on the docks at Lake Mead I first thought what a very unusual ... "Ugly" looking Goose! But after I watched this Goose I noticed he/ she was on top of the dock, getting the first pick of all the food that was being thrown by people & children, as if it was in charge and very proud. At first glance it looked like the Goose had been hurt and breeding, but it was just an unusual looking creature. Books, People and other things is this World are very similar. There is so much more inside so let's try and judge from "The inside Out"

Historic "Boulder City" Nevada (Art Scape) 25 minutes from Las Vegas   Here is a video on around 15 different (Bronze Statues) displayed on the streets in Historic "Boulder City" Boulder City is within minutes of The Hoover Dam and Lake Mead and a very interesting place to visit.

I do a lot of traveling when I teach.  East to West, North to South...  And have become familiar with what I am flying over, and try to look, and snap pictures of various things you fly over.  I was headed back from Texas, and I chose to sit on the right side of the plane to see the Grand Canyon, Vegas, the NASCAR track and of course, Hoover Dam.  I have been to Hoover dam, and it was amazing...  But this time it looked so small... hmmmmmm...  :) Hoover Dam is on the bottom right side of this picture, and this picture was taken before the completion of the highway bridge that bypasses the drive-over part. I hope everyone is having a great week! :) Chris

The above photograph was taken recently in clean, green, Boulder City, Nevada. This year so far we got more rain than all of last year in Boulder City, Nevada. The average rainfall here is about 6 inches. We have been in a drought for the past few years and didn't achieve our average. Seems this year all that has changed.

They bloom in the spring and in the late fall. Believe it or not, roses do remarkably well in the desert. Of course they have to be watered and fed. Boulder City, Nevada has much greenery. There are a lot of trees and many homes have beautiful green lawns. Many of the homes also have roses growing in front of them.
