Let me in

One of my cats thinks he needs to follow me into every room. This was this morning as I was getting ready for work.



I added the photos from the basketball game against Conrad to the Terrell Daily Photo Facebook page.

Theme day-Empty

Not much going on up there most times, pretty empty.



My hair may be going gray, but I still have all of it.

Can anyone help?

Who would do this to Batman? How can he get free?



Don't forget, the Terrell Tigers take on the Midway Panthers in game one of their best of three playoff Thursday night in Waco. If anyone wants to text or tweet updates, send me an email. Or you can add me on Facebook using the link to the right.

The Forney Jackrabbits will take on the Waxahachie Indians also on Thursday night in Forney. Game time is 7pm. That's probably the game I will be able to got to. Forney will will be playing under an interim head coach after Coach Boxley resigned last week.

Waxahachie has one of the best High School players in the country in Colton Cain. He is listed by Rivals.com as the #23 high school player. Hopefully, I will get a chance to watch him pitch. He is a lefty like me.

I wonder if she is single?

Saw this on the side of the road in Vicksburg, MS.

Real Estate is not dead.....really?

Someone likes to use humor to promote their business. Not a bad idea.

I could give a big long rant about the bailout and now the government investing in banks, but I can feel my face already getting red, so I won't.

I will say when I purchased my house, I knew what my budget was, I knew what I could afford and I knew what the payments would be every year until it was paid off. Where is my relief?




That's what I thought.

Summer's End

A week or so ago Jilly posted a series of wonderful photos showing Summer's End in Menton, France.

Here is Summer's End in Terrell, Texas.


You might remember this spot from this picture that was posted back in May.


Tomorrow, Terrell will host a visitor from the UK. BKenton left a comment on a post I made back in July about #1 BFTS pilots. He is in the Dallas area for a wedding hopefully, if all goes well, he will visit Terrell tomorrow to tour the #1 BFTS Museum and Oakland Memorial Park.
If you would like to meet Mr. Kenton email me and I can get you the specifics. Terrelldailyphoto@hotmail.com

Museum officials are currently getting ready for October 17th & 18th. That is is the RAF in Texas Fly-In weekend. Check the link to the right for details. I will probably post more the Fly-In early next week.

A few famous people who celebrate their birthday today.

Randi Oakes (you may have to google her)

There are many more, but I thought I would just list the ones everyone knows. OK, how old am I?

So hot you can fry an egg?

It was so hot yesterday I decided to see if I could fry an egg on the sidewalk. The high temperature in Terrell, Texas yesterday August 3rd was 106 F. In Dallas the high was 107. It's suppose to be the same today. A break may come tomorrow with the high only in the upper 90s.


I ventured outside just before 5PM at the hottest part of the day and set a skillet on the sidewalk. I cracked an egg in the skillet and waited for it to cook. To see what it looked like after an hour in the hot sun, click here.

We are under an excessive heat warning, up to 106 again today. I just saw on TV that skin can burn at 124 degrees and playground equipment can easily make it up to 150 when its this hot out.

Yesterdays post was only for humor, I was not trying to make any specific political statement.

From the penthouse to the...........

Driving north on 429 is this lovely building. I am sure most will recognize this as an out house, but why a ladder?

The Smart Car

I heard the rumors, but I didn’t believe them. They said in Europe that they named a car after me. No way, I thought. But then, I saw it. The car named after me, the Smart Car.



I was able to get this picture of the Smart car on I-30 in Rockwall. I apologize for not getting the entire car in the frame. It was rush hour, I was driving about 70mph, talking on the phone, drinking a soda, eating a candy bar, texting my BFF and smoking a cigarette. But I think I did pretty good, huh?

OK, it’s a joke. I don’t smoke.

OK, I was the passenger.
