Grand Coulee Dam


 Now the world holds seven wonders that the travelers always tell, 
Some gardens and some towers, 
I guess you know them well. 
But now the greatest wonder is in Uncle Sam's fair land, 
It's the big Columbia River and the big Grand Coulee Dam.
Woody Guthrie (1941)

Don't feel sorry for yourself 
I'll always wait for you 
Your ghost is a lightshow at night 
On the Grand Coulee Dam. 
The river is watching you 
At the drive-in tonight 
Who do they comfort now 
Since I've gone away?
Neko Case (2007
