Days At Boulder City and Blue Diamond















Our family went on two outings this past week to see the wildlife around the Las Vegas Valley.
Today, we went to Boulder City, which is southeast of the City and it close to Hoover Dam to watch the Big Horn Sheep. There were about 60 wild sheep in the city park. They come out on a daily basis during daylight hours and head back to the mountains at dusk.


Last week, the family went to Blue Diamond, which is southwest of Las Vegas, by Red Rock Canyon Canyon to visit the wild donkeys. The donkeys are quite friendly, especially if you are holding carrots. Even, if you don't feed them, they will still come up to you and let you put them. It's quite an experience.
