Vegas Pics – Mother Nature vs. I15

Last week, Mother Nature decided to take out  I15. After the water subsided, the trucks got to work.


On Monday, September 8, flash flooding demolished large parts of I15 north of Las Vegas. After the waters receded, crews from Las Vegas went to work rebuilding the roadway.

My hubby was among the many who worked long hours last week to repair the interstate. He managed to get this shot of the damaged road.

It reminded of something my dad used to say: “We have flood control. When it rains, the flood is in control.”

Monday’s  flooding was extensive in Southern Nevada, Arizona, and parts of Southern California. What kind of damage have you seen after last week’s floods?
