GRIZZLY PEAR

Lake Mead, Nevada

Coming back from Overton, I took a slightly longer route via the Lake Mead Recreation area. It was an absolutely gorgeous drive.

So this weekend we trundled up in the van and went back to visit.

It did not disappoint, though partly because it is run down, with buildings from the late 70’s we’re heading towards a half century now, and the falling water levels certainly add to the air of disuse.

I’ve always had a fondness for lonely roads and straggly architecture and this got both in spades.
