Inspiration for all: “Don’t Quit Your Daydream”
I was so inspired by this film I watched last night that I just had to share it with you all. “Don’t Quit Your Daydream” is about a two-member band that puts its best efforts forth to make it in the music industry. There plan? Drive across the country with their band and film crews while making stops along the way to record tracks with local musicians.
Saying Goodbye and Thank You to Penn Camera
This morning, we start saying goodbye to Penn Camera. It has served the Washington D.C. area since 1953 with several store locations. Three locations, E Street, Rockville, and Tysons, will remain open for their clearance sales.
Having Penn Camera in the neighborhood was great for those immediate purchases or rentals you needed to make if a job called for it. When I moved to the D.C. area from a small town in Pennsylvania, I was so thrilled to finally have a major photography store in my immediate area.
I’m sorry to see them close their doors for a final time. Best of luck to all those who have worked at Penn Camera and thank you for your many years of care and service!
