Although not the girls' favorite stop of our week (they called it "boring"), we knew we couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit such a major American landmark. We are so glad we did too. We know that they will remember it always, and appreciate it someday. :)
The tricky thing was that the area was experiencing unusually strong winds that day (50 mph gusts, anyone?) which made traversing the memorial bridge looking down on the dam more than a little scary. We made it roughly halfway across before the flinging winds and steep drop off on one side, and the semi trucks speeding by on the other got the best of us, and forced us down to the dam itself.
The best part was standing with one foot in each state, and jumping back and forth between the two. :) Pretty cool...
