So my family and I went down to Lake Somerville to camp out for the weekend again.  We had a blast.  We got one of the tent areas with shared water faucet and fire pit.  We set up a big tent with my little sister’s personal tent set up next to the add-on door on the big tent, she loved it and we all had plenty of sleeping room, although I think the log cabins are still a better deal.  We cooked bacon, potatoes, and scrambled eggs for breakfast one morning at the fire pit and had cooked sausage and egg burritos the next morning, and even grilled steak, potatoes and carrots one night, I can say we ate well. We went hiking, fed the ducks, and generally just enjoyed the outdoors.  We took a little foot-paddle boat out on the water, it was fun but man my legs are soar, it was a bit windy on the way back.  We took turns paddling and swimming in the water, and even pulled each other on the tie ropes.  I didn’t get pictures of all the fun, but I did get a few of the surroundings.

A unique view of one section of banks on Lake Somerville, where several trees fell down…made an interesting shot to me.

Here’s yet another shot of the water at Lake Somerville, TX.  Low area with some grass showing through the water.  Not my best work…

Near one of the hiking trails is a short trail down a slope that goes down to the water with a nice view of Lake Somerville.  I thought the scene would make a great picture.

There’s our tent, with my little sister’s tent sitting next to the attachment door, it fit (almost) perfectly.  Fun, but I still liked the log cabins across the way better.

Here’s a rare photo, we caught a squirrel getting a drink of water from a nearby faucet.  There’s an edited close-up below.

Here’s a close-up of that squirrel drinking water from a faucet.  Wish I had gotten a video too…

My little sister thought it was hilarious.  We tried getting a closer shot, but the little guy ran away.

Here’s a photo of the Lake Somerville bathroom shack.  Why did I take a picture of this?  I guess I thought the house in the woods and the trees in the view kinda looked good.  I call it a shack, but they are actually pretty nice bathrooms with personal showers.

Great view from the top of this three story platform, right next to the Lake Somerville Marina Shop. Lots of high steps, didn’t we count them….hmm….

  2. Niche Blueprint is a course created by Tim Godfrey & Steve Clayton, who also created Commission Blueprint. The course contains 30 videos and 30 manuals through which the authors teach how to create these sites that can make you tens of thousands of dollars each month.

    The very first thing that you will become familiar with is researching for locating profitable niches. It is an important part of the general strategy because unless you get the niches where people buy products that you are selling; you aren’t likely to earn much.

    After niche selection and keyword research, you will be shown how to work with the included Drop ship Blueprint to locate the drop shippers to make the products that you’re selling. This can be a huge time and effort saver because you do not have to keep an inventory, nor build a warehouse when your business grows. The drop shippers will do the shipping and handling for you.

    There is one particular site shown by Tim and Steve in their pre-launch video that sells ‘Bird Cages’. This site makes $15,000 monthly and was flipped for $173,000 (Yes, additionally they teach you how to flip your site for immediate cash).

    Niche Blueprint 2.0 is simply a course and just like some other courses you need to put it in action for it to work. I mean, perhaps you have managed to talk a new language by just reading a “Educate Yourself” book? I doubt anyone can do that. Even if they understand a lot by reading, to actually be able to speak, they need to start conversing with someone in that language. This is a simple concept, but so many individuals fail to understand it. I have observed so many people in the forums complaining that certain techniques mentioned in certain product does not work, and yet when I attempted the same technique it worked. It freaking worked. Although there were more than one people saying that it doesn’t work. Do you know why this happened? Lots of people do not test; they just say what they head from one failed person. But remember, simply because one person fails does not imply the technique doesn’t work. Therefore, before saying something works or doesn’t, it is absolutely important to test it.

  3. Well, If you have ever thought about writing some script to automate those things that you are doing many times on a daily basis, then you have a great and easy way to automate the entir e process. It comes without saying that a few imacros and firefox add-ons can automate all actions related to a browser (Mozilla). If you want to automate your system as such, then you may need another script, easy commands can automate your system. Even a beginner will automate things using a simple software called as sikuli all you need to do is to tell Sikuli what to do by giving some screenshots and easy commands.
    A GUI will be used with Sikuli. Sikuli is an open siurce scripting application that will use a mix of simple commands like click, type, wait and so on. There’s no internal API support, it simply searches the screen for the image in the screenshot-which implies that you’ll use it for anything. There’s literally no limit on how you utilize it to automate things.
    This is too good to be true, however if you watch the following video, you may come to know that this is often extremely easy. If you visit their home page, you get a lot of tutorials and support; it will be a cake walk even for beginners. You’ll check the video as well as get the software at TechnoAges.com
