They are water pipes, but they perform a particular function. Not Hoover Dam.

Nope.

How about an irrigation project??

That what I was Googling, but I can find anything that uses that large a diameter pipe. They look about 8 ft in diameter. I'm thinking it's some kind of runoff/overflow system the way they are staggered in length.

Well, pipes that large are definately on the supply end of an irrigation project.

Googled it out:

Columbia Basin Irrigation Project, Washington. Specifically supply pipes at the Grand Coulee pumping plant.

Very good. They are siphon pipes on the mountainside above Grand Coulee dam. Sucks water out of the lake behind the dam and fills the Grand Coulee.

You're up.

You just had to leave us with that visual, didn't you?!

Waiting is too hard on me. I'm going shopping!

BTW Buck, There are two of us--Barb L and me (Barbara L). Thank goodness she is a nice person, and for her that I am a nice person (Be quiet--I AM!) because we could cause each other a lot of problems!!

My most humble apologies for creating the possibility of confusion. I"m glad you're a nice person. The world needs more nice persons. (Katie E. and I are nice persons too). Aren't we?

Thanks. (That was nice.)

 

[Barbara L]

Of course you're both nice! Anyone who loves kitties is nice! And dogs and chickens of course (can't leave Fred out!)!
