Las Vegas Weekend

Brad had a class in Las Vegas this week.  We got to go a few days early and spend the weekend with Kirsten, Brandon and Jonas.  Brandon competed in a triathalon on Saturday and did a great job.  He beat his previous time by about 15 minutes.

We then went to the Hoover Dam and drove and walked across the newly opened bridge that was built up from the bridge so the traffic now doesn't have to cross the dam. Pictures just can't do justice to the size of this bridge!  It is 900 feet high, and 1900 feet long and 88 feet wide!  We got an amazing view of the Hoover Dam from the bridge.

Jonas loves to slide and climb.

 Kirsten, Jonas, Brad and I went for a brisk walk at the Wetlands Park for some exersize.  They had some fun things for Jonas to climb on.

Here is a picture of Sunrise Mountain that is prominently seen in Las Vegas.  The temple is built at the foot of the mountain.  Brad got an awesome shot of it as the sun was setting.
