Art Deco Angels at Hoover Dam
We drove up US 95 from Kingman, AZ, toward Las Vegas, today. We crossed from Arizona to Nevada at Hoover Dam. These art-deco angels were acting as the color guard for the flagpole that stands at the West end of the dam. The inscription is a very nice one, telling how fitting it is to place the American Flag at this site.

I thought it was a beautiful sentiment. That’s when people really love their country, even in the bad times.

I found this long-shot of the flagpole taken from a mile away on the Arizona side, to put the scene in perspective.
There were thousands of vehicles lined up to cross the dam in both directions.
