Dave and Stuart rode their bicycles from Scottsdale down Indian Bend Wash to Tempe Town Lake. This view shows one of the boat ramps in the lake, looking west towards the office buildings on the Tempe side of the Mill Avenue Bridge.
Tempe Town Lake is formed by a dam and the release of water into the Salt River. There is an issue because the original dam was made of an inflated rubber material, and it did not last as long as expected due to the brutal Arizona sun. The City of Tempe is trying to decide whether to replace the short-term replacement dam with another inflatable rubber dam or whether to construct a more durable dam.
This week we are showing photos of Valparaiso, Chile, which has the most extensive and talented street art of any place we have visited, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

Tempe has enhanced the property values of the area around the Tempe Town Lake by creating the lake.
There is a lot to see (and photograph) around the town lake. I like going there.
Lots of activities going on here. Nice addition to Tempe
There's just something in this scene that I find very attractive, though I can't pinpoint exactly what.
