First National Bank building, Terrell, Texas


This building is a frequent subject for posts here and on Brian's blog. It's no longer a bank, today it's home to an attorneys office. I think its pretty obvious why it's so popular, its a great looking building. Brian posted a picture last month from the same angle as my post today. I wanted to see what it looked like at night, so Saturday night while I was out, I set up my tripod and snapped away. The bank building is located on Moore Ave. which is also known as Highway 80. This is about a block west of yesterdays photo.

Moore Ave at night, Terrell, Texas


It has been a while since I posted a nighttime picture of Terrell. This is Moore Ave, the main drag through town. It was taken Saturday night around 9:30PM looking east.

Internal hard disk drive not found

Last night I am checking out all of the Daily City Photo sites like I do every night, on my new just over a month old Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop, and I get to page I think 8 or 9 on the portal and my computer freezes. My mouse is still moving around but the its not doing anything, I cant toggle between windows, cant close anything out. I set there for a few minutes thinking its trying to open a page and got hung up. So after about 5 minutes the mouse quits moving, and the computer starts making a clicking sound. Not sure what’s going on, I shut down the computer without logging off because I can’t log off. When I go to restart it, internal hard disk drive not found. Now what? Well, I have my old computer, so I logged into Dell chat, and got a customer service rep who was very helpful, but it seems they are going to have to send me a new hard drive. He told me not to worry though, because this is a common problem, and oh by the way, you have lost everything you had on your computer. So until I get my new hard drive I am back to using my old computer and I feel like I am one of these cars stuck in traffic. BTW, the picture is from Saturday on Highway 80, there was a wreck that backed up traffic for miles. I wasn’t driving when I took the picture, I was the passenger.
