I don't know if I've shared this with the flickr community yet, but I run a small non-profit called A Hand In Health (shameless plug i know.. i know..)
www.handinhealth.org
But today was such a fulfilling day and I just have to share! So one of the projects of my non-profit is to build a medical/dental library in a very small rural hospital in The Gambia, West Africa. We partnered with Books for Africa and the Gambian Embassy to send over the books and it is official! We have been collecting books for the last month and a half and just this morning I dropped off about $42,000 worth of medical/dental texts! I
know I'm in finals.. i know I should be studying my tail off.. but I'm so in love with this project and the people I"m meeting through it! I met the head guy today while hanging in the warehouse and he was the mastermind behind this entire project! I couldn't believe it! There he was.. just hanging out! We had a great convo and again.. i'm off on a whirlwind of ideas and dreams that are totally distracting during "buckle down finals time" But I'm absolutely loving every bit of it.
Cheers to fitting $42,000 lbs of books in my car this morning! Woooooo!!!

I've been posting a lot of wimpy stuff lately - And I've got more wimpy stuff that's in my "ready to post" folder. But I feel the need to post some serious heavy metal. So I did a little archive diving and found something perfect. There are 42 million pictures of this (it's on the tour), but I'll add mine to the world's collection.
Looks better bigger
Hoover Dam, once known as Boulder Dam, is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Arizona and Nevada. When completed in 1936, it was both the world's largest hydroelectric power generating station and the world's largest concrete structure. It was surpassed in both these respects by the Grand Coulee Dam in 1945. It is currently the world's 38th-largest hydroelectric generating station.
This dam, located 30 mi (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada, is named after Herbert Hoover, who played an instrumental role in its construction, first as the Secretary of Commerce, and then later, as the President of the United States. Construction began in 1931, and was completed in 1936, a little more than two years ahead of schedule. The dam and the power plant are operated by the Bureau of Reclamation of the U.S. Department of the Interior. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981, Hoover Dam was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1985.
