Very fun day! Finally got to see the Hoover Dam. It was fun being a touron for awhile. I haven't seen that many bighorn sheep in my life! And we were able to get so close - very cool. Good idea.

Great pics! How nice to see all those sheep together. I was over that way too this past weekend - I really like what I've seen of Nevada - it's just beautiful country once you get out of the city. I'm looking forward to seeing your Charleston pictures - I need to go back and do that one. I hope you did Mummy while there - that's a fun peak.

Hey! Cool photos of Big Horn Sheep! I think I only ever saw about 2 or 3 from far away when I was over in the States - they are awesome animals. Thanks for your comments on my webpage - I use a programme called PixmakerPro. It seems to be the only one I've found that matches up the sky colours properly. Cheers, Kate :)
