Lake Sedona ( be sure to read Marcia's comment below)

Sedona, AZ

This is a new lake in Sedona. Due to the dry season and lack of desert flowers this spring a group of us photographers built this lake to irrigate the desert so as to have flowers next spring. In the mean time we plan to build a marina on the lake to support our efforts and believe with the shirking of Lake Powell, we should be able to capture over 50% of their business. We are less than half the distance to Phoenix as Lake Powell. The motorboats, jet skis, and houseboats will be a nice complement to the pink jeeps and the helicopter rides which enhance the area and the economy already. Note: All of this has been achieved without the support of Senator McCain.

good effort fred!
should preserve this type of environment as much as possible....otherwise it becomes like melbourne....boring flat grounds with skyscrapers (which are not even that tall).

You sure picked a beautiful spot Fred. Fascinating project, and I'm trying to figure out how you did it.
