"That sure is a skinny looking Turkey"

Lake Mead Nevada by Robert Swetz

 "That sure is a skinny looking Turkey"

 On my visit to Lake Mead last weekend I captured this really skinny Turkey flying around, but I am not sure if it's a Turkey or what it might be.

 The sun was setting so the pics are little dark and I used a 135 mm lens to get these wonderful shots and reflections.

 I know that this bird is not a Turkey but I thought it was a great way to catch the attention of my friends at Activerain, I am not really sure what kind of bird this is.

"What is your Favorite dish on Thanksgiving Day?"

"What is your Favorite dish on Thanksgiving Day?"

 "Thanksgiving"

 I have always enjoyed "Thanksgiving" because of the wide variety of foods that are prepared, of all these foods what is your favorite dish?

 I really light dark meat with some mashed potatoes and gravy, and as for desert I enjoy a slice of homemade pumpkin or pecan pie with small scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

 Do I have your mouth watering yet?

 I would like to wish all my friends at Activerain a very "Happy" Thanksgiving Day!

Why are some people waiting to purchase a home?

 Why are some people waiting to purchase a home?

 There are some people that have a chance to purchase a home but continue to wait. These people have been approved by a lender, have looked at some homes and have a idea of what their looking for.

 Some of these people think that there is going to be another flood of homes this winter and some homeowners are going to lose their jobs and their homes will go into for-closer.

 What is your opinion?

 Is is a good idea to wait to purchase a home?

 Could some of people be waiting to long and possibly lose their opportunity to purchase?

 Inquiring minds want to know!

Have you ever been to "Lake Mead" in Nevada?

Lake Mead Nevada by Robert Swetz

 Have you ever been to "Lake Mead" in Nevada?

 If you have ever been to Lake Mead in Nevada only 30 minutes from Las Vegas you will be able to relate to this post. And if you never have been to Lake Mead it is a (Must See), I was there Sunday afternoon taking some photographs and it was about 80 degrees out by the lake and it was beautiful.

 Here are some stats on Lake Mead below and several photographs I took, I will be posting another story with some very unusual photographs I captured while experimenting with my camera.

 Encompassing 1.5 million acres, Lake Mead National Recreation Area features two large reservoirs, Lake Mead and Lake Mohave. Lake Mead, the larger of the two lakes, covers approximately 247 square miles and boasts 550 miles of shoreline.

 Attracting nearly eight million visitors annually, Lake Mead is a popular spot for boating, water-skiing, swimming, and fishing. Its surrounding desert is home to rock formations and diverse flora and fauna, which reward hikers and photographers.

 Originally called Boulder Dam Recreation Area, the park's name honors Dr. Elwood Mead, the U.S. Reclamation Commissioner between 1924 and 1936. The Alan Bible Visitor Center, located four miles east of Boulder City, provides visitors pertinent information about the recreation area. It also displays interactive, hands-on exhibits that help visitors discover the Mojave Desert.

 Located approximately 30 miles southeast of Las Vegas, the recreation area boasts eight marinas, which offer boat and house boat rentals. The park is also home to eight campgrounds and five RV campgrounds with hookups.

Operating Hours & Seasons:
Open year round, 24 hours a day. The visitor center is open daily, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Admission: $5 per vehicle

 These photographs were taken when the sun was setting and if you look real close you can see a couple figures of people and look how small they are compared to a very, very small part of Lake Mead.

 Lake Mead is so big and beautiful that it is a photographers haven and you could go down to Lake Mead day after day, week end after week end and never run out of different scenes to photograph.

 Robert Swetz headed out to capture the beauty of Nature 

 Another weekend off and I am very excited about getting out of the city, breathing some fresh air,taking some beautiful photographs like the ones on this post, writing some pages for my new book and relaxing my body & soul with some natural meditation.

 All of us live in different areas of Natural beauty that God has created for us. For me Nature and Beauty are my "Happiness" and that is why I continue to post with photographs.

 I post photographs about different places to show possible reasons people may want to relocate or move to these areas.

 As everyone knows my favorite areas of beauty are Northern California, Alaska, Oregon,Washington State, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Arizona, New Mexico and more.

 I have already planned a very serious vacation overseas in countries like New Zealand, Australia, Thailand and China and I will have around three different cameras in hand.

 So until then please enjoy the beauty of these photographs taken in United States of America.

 This post has been posted to one of my favorite groups at Activerain and you are more than welcome to join the fun at ..............

With (Patience) Dreams & Visions Do Come True for Robert Swetz ............

 With (Patience) Dreams & Visions Do Come True for Robert Swetz ............

 Seven years ago I had a very strange Dream that formed into a Vision that has been bothering me. It will continue to bother me until I get this Vision out which is why I am writing a book about this Dream/ Vision.

 I started working on this book in the beginning of 2009 and posted a blog at Activerain searching for someone to help me write this book. Well around 5 months ago someone from Activerain came forward to help me write this book and get my story out.

 We do live in a very small world not only did I find some one from Activerain to help me with my book, this person is from Las Vegas Nevada .............. (Bonus)!

 She is my (Mystery) Ghost writer, oops you didn't hear that from me.

 I received a phone call from her today and she had some great news to tell me. My book is still in a early enough stage to be written into such a way that it would be easy to make into a movie.

 Well, she has some friends in the movie business and I will be meeting with them next week to go over my book with them. One of her friends is going to help us format my book into script form so it will not have to be re-written if I decide to make a movie, which in turn will save me so much money.

 My friend also mentioned to me that she has friends in Hollywood that direct & produce independent movies and they also want to speak with me in the later stages of the book.

 I am very excited about what is going to be taking place in my life!

 And years ago when I was growing up I was always so impatient, if I couldn't have it today I didn't want it. When I started projects, ideas, careers, etc., in my life and if I couldn't make it happen in a very short time I would throw it aside and move on.

 My patience is really starting to pay off and I would like to personally thank the Activerain Network for helping bring this person helping me with my book, and I will be revealing who this person is when they are ready.

 I hope this post can help and encourage others to please be patient with everything they do because I have and it is a (Dream Come True)!

 I would like to dedicate this post to all the (Children) of the world that have been sexually abused because this book is all about you and you need to be heard!

 Here is a (link) for a free network on my new book ..........

What is the (best) City in the United States to live in?

 What is the (best) City in the United States to live in?

 We come across different statistics from Newspapers, Internet and other resources, but are all of these sources of information true?

 Which City in the United States has the least amount of (Crime)?

 Which City has the best (Schools) for education?

 Which City has less (Property Taxes)?

 Which City has the best (Hospitals) & Doctors?

 Which City is the (Healthiest) to live in?

 Which City is the best for (Real Estate) Properties & Investments?

 Which City has the best (Churches) and strongest religious beliefs?

 I have thrown this question out to the Members of Activerain because I really believe they know about their City they live in and cities across the United States.

 Now when you reply in your comments please don't cut & paste some information that you picked up across the Internet, do your home work.

 Inquiring minds and people that are purchasing homes are interested in your answers!
