Arizona Fall Break - Hoover Dam & Flagstaff

 From Vegas, we drove to Hemenway Park where we saw some big horn sheep just hanging out near the playground. Then we headed on to Hoover Dam where we took the power plant tour to see how it works. From there, we drove onto Flagstaff, Arizona where we were staying for our Grand Canyon day. We went out to eat at Bigfoot BBQ and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the respite from the hot temperatures. That night, we went to the Lowell Observatory. I don't have many photos because it was extremely dark (the telescopes need darkness to work, so there was barely any light). Lowell is where they originally discovered Pluto! We were able to look at the Andromeda galaxy through a telescope.
