The View From the new Pat Tillman Bridge

December 15, 2011

On our way to Vegas last Thursday, we stopped and walked out on the new Pat Tillman bridge and I took this shot looking at Hoover Dam. Love the landscape in that area (what's the name of that butte in the back?). Breathtaking view straight down.

It was on this date in 1928 that the Westward Ho Hotel opened in Phoenix. Kathy and I had our first date there in 1977, at a New Times Christmas party where the Southern Tornado played (I was on drums). That was a few moons ago.
