he and his CCC Company - hauled rocks up to the site for the building of the Dam. I found some pictures he took of the Dam as it was being built. Three years ago I visited the site of his Camp in Entiat, Washington (the camp is long gone - but I was able to walk on the site). I also drove up to the Dam to see it in it's finished present state. I felt a sense of pride that my Dad had some small part in its construction.
