The great Chicago fire began October 8, 1871, in the O'Leary barn on DeKoven Street. Fanned by a strong wind, in a city largely built of wood structures, the blaze raged for nearly 30 hours. Flames spread so far as Fullerton Avenue, before finally dying out in the early morning rain, October 10. Almost everything in the path of the fire had been destroyed.

Road trip from Las Vegas, Nevada to Los Angeles, California.. and a detour to Hoover Dam..

Perhaphs the best day in my trip!!! The weather too was beautiful. Sunny, blue sky with some cumulous clouds and the temperature around 40 degree F. Perfect!!! Hoover Dam was very impressive and so was Lake Mead and the wonderful sculptures by Oskar Hansen..



Disneyland Park, Anaheim, California..

Las Vegas, Hotel Bellagio, Musical Fountain..

We reached Las Vegas by night and drove around in the city. For whatever reason, I was not in a mood to take many photographs. Few shots include the Musical Founatin at Bellagio Hotel. Our stay was at the huge Circus Circus Hotel. Next morning, we checked out by 11 am; and left for Hoover Dam. So the trip to Las Vegas was extremely short. And I have to admit, my first impressions on Las Vegas was not very favorable! It was too ostentacious, theatrical, flaunting. Not my type! But then, my stay was very short, to come up with a reasonable assessment!
