AN OFFER WE COULD NOT REFUSE

1.An offer we could not refuse

On our drive back to Arizona the next morning, we noticed a sign for helicopter rides. Only $29! How could we say no?? Neither Caro nor I had ever ridden on a helicopter, so it was definitely money well spent. We flew over picturesque Lake Mead in Boulder City, NV and the Hoover Dam. Our pictures barely do it justice...
