CATEVA CUVINTE...

Sunt recunoscatoare Domnului Isus pentru ca exist si am calatorit pana aici, si voi calatori si mai departe doar prin dragostea si harul Sau. Tot El m-a facut constienta ca talantul ce mi l-a dat trebuie sa-l pun in negot, ca lumina Lui trebuie s-o arat si altora, iar ca hrana sa fie buna trebuie sa pun si sare. Daca tot ceea ce am primit pana acum si voi primi si de acum inainte mi-a fost mie de folos si imi va fi de folos , cu siguranta le va fi si altora.

BARAJUL DE LA MONTICELLO

Located at the Monticello Dam at Lake Berryessa in Northern California, this gigantic drain acts as the lake's spillway.




Technically known as the Morning Glory Spillway it is locally, somewhat more colorfully, known as "The Glory Hole". When the dam reaches capacity, the spillway swallows water at a rate of 48,800 cubic feet per second, emptying about 700 feet away through an enormous concrete pipe.



The dam and spillway were constructed between 1953 and 1957, choking off Putah Creek and drowning the remains of the town of Monticello. At very low water levels, the foundations of the town can be seen in parts of the lake. The outside diameter s 72 feet, slowly narrowing to 28 feet at the exit. While this is the largest drain of its kind, there are other Glory Hole spillways around the world, including one at Whiskeytown Lake, near Redding also in Northern California.

Daring skateboarders have been known to use the exit of the spillway as a ramp in the dry season.
You can see the Glory Hole from the lake, but it is cordoned off from boaters and swimmers for safety reasons.

Ingenioasa solutie inginereasca ce creaza pe deasupra si o imagine atragatoare...Constructorul a luat toate masurile de siguranta ca sa nu nimereasca cineva intamplator in aceasta groapa de preaplin....In lume sunt multe"gropi" care par "frumoase" si "atragatoare" in care putem "cadea" daca nu luam seama de avertismentele pe care Dumnezeu ni le-a lasat scrise in Cuvantul Sau....Vom fi protejati doar daca vom "merge" pe "drumul" indicat de Domnul Isus.....
