The site of the new solar field in the Nevada desert, near Boulder City, was tested.
Mark did it again.
He shlepped the big load frame on the trailer and the family along, so he can have a good time riding a big ol' tractor out in the sand blasted desert for a few days and playing with steel and soil...etc...otherwise known as testing.
We all had a great time.
Mark came back to the hotel every evening exhausted and covered with dirt. Riding a tractor is tyring after all.
Buck and Spitz slept in the airconditioned hotel room for the most part and had short walks througout the day.
I made 3 of my baby quilts for my granddaughter.
That way we hung out from Tuesday through Saturday.
Saturday afternoon, daddy finished a little earlier and we all went to see the architectural wonders of the US.
The Hoover Dam
New bridge for crossing the river.
Buck is more interested in the lake bellow. It's so close he can taste it, yet we cannot go into it.
After the lake view point, we walked on a view trail that goes from the visitor center to the Hoover Dam.
It is about 4 miles long. It was a nice stroll to tire us all out for the evening.

Wow! Sounds like a great trip! However, I don't think Mark has made much of a leap from the sandbox at Pinecrest with the Tonka grader to the solar fields of Boulder City on a tractor!
Love you guys!
