12/24/2009

Today I went to a dam called Hoover dam or Boulder dam. It is America’s biggest dam. It has 14 big turbines and 4 small turbines. It is near Nevada and Arizona. The dam controls the Colorado River which is all green. The dam can generate 4 billion kilowatt hours a year enough to serve 1.3 million people! The width is over 13.7 meters. The height is 221.3 meters. Along time ago the forces put machine gun around the dam. Also the length is 379.3 meters and the concrete used on it is 2.6million cubic meters. HUGE UH??
Also I watched a movie about atomic bombs. It said that a untidy house is easily blown up. An atomic bomb is formed when you put a + in uranium. The reaction is that it breaks into two. Then the + is left and it explodes hitting other atoms to make the explosion bigger.
I went to a picture taking place. You can pose with famous people and be like them. My favorite part is when I took a picture with Obama. SAID TOO MUCH.
