Tiger almost pull it out

The Tigers gave the #3 DMN Dallas area 5A Pirates from Poteet all they could handle last night before losing 42-35.  It was the final regular season game of the year.  Playoffs start next week, Terrell vs Hillcrest.  

Game Day, Tigers vs Pirates

First Methodist Church, Terrell, TX.

I hate when the time changes in the fall.  I'm never ready for it.  Taking pictures after dark is not fun.  I have never been able to get a good shot of this Church.  This is probably one of my better ones. 

Rainy night

Back to the park

Revisiting my trip to the park from last week with a little lightroom adjustment.

A&M Commerce flips for a win

The Texas A&M Commerce Lions celebrated senior day and homecoming Saturday in Commerce, TX with a win over McMurry State 91-13.  The win gave the Lions the LCS championship outright and the 1 seed in their conference playoffs.  More photos from the game can be found the Terrell Daily Photo Facebook page, link on the right. 

Doomed?

This doesn't look good. An empty building that had asbestos removed last month now has a chain link fence surrounding it. I started this blog back in 2007 to try to preserve pictures of old buildings in Terrell that seemed to turn into parking lots or a grass lot over night.  I hope I'm wrong and this is just the start of renovations. 

Tigers clinch playoff spot

The Tigers will be making a trip to the playoffs for the first time since 2009.  The defeated South Garland 64-36 last night at Memorial Stadium in Terrell.

Out for a run

It seems like its been forever since I was out for a run, but I was able to get out last night and run.

Honorable Mention

My photo that hung in the Creative Arts building at the State Fair of Texas.  I received Honorable Mention in the edited photo category. Not bad for a contest open to the entire state.

Civic Auction

Last night was the Terrell Chamber of Commerce Civic Auction held at S&S arena, a huge indoor rodeo arena.  The place was full of items for a silent and live auction donated by area businesses. I donated a quilt made with pictures of the remodeled Memorial stadium.  It was sold for $450, I was happy.  The food was by Soulmans BBQ and was great.

Storm aftermath

We escaped the storm Monday morning with just a few small limbs down.  Our neighbor (below) had quite a few more and larger limbs down.

Time for a new Facebook banner picture.

A Warning

Group cheer

Dusk in Terrell

Almost full

The moon isnt full yet, but I wanted to see what I could get with my new lens.  

Tiger quilt

My photos used to create a quilt to commemorate the first home game in the renovated stadium. The quilt will be auctioned off at the Terrell Chamber of Commerce Civic Auction later this month.  Glenda Carey and Brian Stout did the quilt work.

Rib Rib Run

Yesterday was the annual Rib Rub Run in Rockwall, TX.  We skipped the run this year and went for to watch the BBQ judging and listen to music.  The weather was nice and as usual the City of Rockwall put on a great event. 

Tigers surge in the second half ends just short

The Tigers fell behind 21-0 to Rockwall Heath Friday night but rallied in the second half to only fall short 21-19.

Game Day, Tigers vs Hawks

Up for the spike
