Where I come from, Hoover sucks

When you drive from Flagstaff, Arizona to Las Vegas, you have to cross the Colorado River at some stage.  One of the best spots to do this is Hoover Dam.
Crossed it.
Imposing, monumental, awe-inspiring; the dam looks like something out of a Superman cartoon.  I kept waiting for Transformers to fight on it.  There's a huge art-deco statue at the entrance, marking the date of dedication.
Swam it.  (Lying)
Seeing it so soon after the Grand Canyon was a bit of a headspin.  Luckily we were heading to Vegas, which was not inspiring at all.
