It's a 15 inch MacBook Pro. My husband knows a lot about Mac computers, and he helped me pick it out. I got a discount because I work at a school.<BR/><BR/>It was trying to snow that day, but I'm thinking it was about finished when we were driving home.<BR/><BR/>We actually live in Lincoln, the capitol city of Nebraska, which in the census of 2000 had 225,581 people. I had to look up the difference between a silo and a grain elevator, and still couldn't tell. I think a silo is used to store things like grain, and a grain elevator is where farmers can bring their products and then they get stored in silos. If anyone reading this knows the difference, please enlighten me. There really are not very many large cities in our state, and there are a lot of farms and ranches.<BR/><BR/>The last photo was of a Purina plant or storage place of some kind. I sure don't know much about the countryside around me! I'll have to get pics of the wind turbines some time if I can get close enough.<BR/><BR/>I plan on taking pictures of buildings and whatever I find in Lincoln soon.<BR/><BR/>I looked up Charles Sheeler. He sure was a busy and talented guy!Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-49079399527969350492008-12-05T21:11:00.000-06:002008-12-05T21:11:00.000-06:00Sounds like you had a successful computer shopping...Sounds like you had a successful computer shopping trip :) I'm getting a laptop too.
