Trip to the Grand Coulee Dam




We went to Grandma and Grandpa Anderson for Memorial Day and went to the Grand Coulee Dam. Its not quite as impressive as Boulder Dam in Nevada, but it was pretty big. Kids had a great time going through the museum. What Phil and I thought was amazing were the "coulees."  Huge areas of Washington carved out by water from one of the worlds largest flash floods. The water would have been a wall of 900 feet tall and the falls it created would have been 10 times the size of Niagra Falls. Crazy! Learned a little bit about our state!
