It has been a busy three months. Spent two months in Nevada working at the Nevada Test Site – Device Assembly Facility. My office overlooked the Yucca Flats where they set off the nuclear weapons:
News Nob where they took this photo was just outside my window. The scene nearby today:
I got to tour Sedan crater (worlds largest manmade crater):
“IceCap”, the British – American joint test (which the nuclear test ban treaty stopped):
The Apple II test building the Japanese built:
and the 1800’s oven:
I got to see the Hoover dam where dad’s uncle Frank Weymouth was the chief engineer:
I took an airplane ride and took a picture of the dam from the air:
Justin got tickets for us to go to the NASCAR race there in Las Vegas and also spent time with him and his family:
Breannae and Alyssa
I also go to go out into the desert:
These are Joshua trees in the desert, and huge trees in the mountains:
And ski trails:
I saw one rabbit, two antelope, one coyote and one hawk. Only the rabbit was off the Nevada Test Site (no cameras are allowed onsite unless you have a special need – luckily I ran across the one lady on site who had permission – she took the pictures of me at Sedan, etc.).
Death Valley:
To snow and extreme cold in an hour’s drive.
