Diamond Valley Lake (DVL) is a reservoir completed in 2002. It has two main dams, one at it's eastern end and another at it's western end. These dams are visible in this picture as the straight lines at the near side and the far side. DVL helps supply fresh water to 18 million people in southern California and holds 800,000 acre-feet (990,000,000 cubic meters) of water. In addition to be a water source and recreation area, the reservoir also supplies hydroelectric power. During construction, bones and skeletons of mastodons, mammoth, camel, sloth, dire wolf and long-horned bison were found and are now displayed in a local museum.

Tú me llevastes:

Entre pinares verdes

baja la colina

a un verde valle

junto sueños de arcilla

pastando en la orilla

bestias de otros tiempos,

ahora quedó en lago

ahogando esos sueños

sueños de bestias

deseos de antaño.

Gracias. D☼≈ald Wils☼≈ McCull☼ch
