Christmas day trip

We took a short trip to the Blue Water casino near Parker, AZ today.  It was a nice sunny day for a drive.  The following pictures are of the first Hummingbird on our feeder and some scenery shots of the trip to Parker.

He/she is getting ready to eat here.  Not sure what the color on the side of the head is.


He/she is chowing down now.  I sure we will see a lot more of the birds now.


This is a shot of the Parker dam from the down river side.  This is the dam that makes the Colorado river into Lake Havasu.


This is the river as it flows on south below the dam.


Just a scenic shot along the road.


 Another scenic shot that also shows some of Lake Havasu just above the dam.  The bridge you can see in the center of the picture is where we eventually get to as we are going home.


A shot of the lake above the Parker dam.   The lake was made by filling up the canyons
with the Colorado river.
