It’s still raining here (a lot), so I went to the exotic location of my backyard to take today’s photo. This tree (we call them filbert trees here, but you might know it better as a hazel or hazelnut tree, if I understand things correctly) leaf looked kinda pretty, with raindrops dangling off its tips. [...]
Guest photographer Gary Jones sent this very pretty photo of a rainbow he took from Highway 22 looking towards Sublimity. The sky is beautiful, with the clouds adding drama to the rainbow. Thanks, Gary!
By the way, Dave over at StaytonEvents.com has two slideshows up from the wind storm we had on the 1st, including the [...]
Guest photographer Moe has sent along some photos of downed trees at Pioneer Park. It looks like some big ones went down. I didn’t do it. The wind storm which followed the snow/ice we had a handful of days ago obviously took its toll. It looks a lot like my backyard, actually (see yesterday’s post).
Below [...]
We had a bit of wind early Friday morning… and by “bit” I mean “a lot.” There are tree branches all over the place in my neighborhood, and in some cases, there are trees toppled over, like the one above. This is my neighbor’s house, where fortunately no one was injured. Her family and a [...]
The snow is all but gone now (it’s been replaced by a lot of rain), but I still can’t get out and take photos. So here’s another snow shot. Yay.
If anyone out there has Stayton area photos you would like to share, please send them along (site [at] specialweb.com or celine.chamberlin [at] gmail.com). I’d love [...]
The snow is mostly melted at my house, but that doesn’t mean I can’t post at least one more snow photo. I still haven’t been able to go out and take pictures (it’s been two weeks since I’ve gone anywhere outside of my neighborhood to shoot)… I hope I can rectify that this weekend or [...]
I discovered a late last night my blog hadn’t updated since the 23rd, so my Christmas Eve and Christmas day posts didn’t get posted like they should have been. Which is a bit of a bummer. I apologize… Blogger’s update thing must have been wacky. They’re up now.
In other news, we had a wee bit [...]
Merry Christmas Eve to all who celebrate the day, and to everyone in general — I hope you have a happy day.
I don’t normally post photos of my pets on this blog — I kind of have a rule against it, actually — but desperate times call for desperate measures. I still can’t go anywhere, [...]
So. It snowed again. And this wasn’t the pretty snow of the other day. This snow was all over the place, and it was icy, and it was incredibly annoying.
I went out for only a few minutes to take photos yesterday. I’m still stuck at home, since my scooter can’t go in snow. I really [...]
Everything just kind of froze yesterday. All the trees and plants had thick layers of ice covering them, and freezing rain kept on falling from the sky.
I had planned on taking a trip to the grocery store yesterday, but didn’t feel like slip sliding all over the roads. Oh, and I should mention the wind [...]
More snow photos from Friday (see yesterday’s post for more). The photo above is of some snow-covered Douglas-Fir trees, and the photo at right is a couple of plastic sleds some neighbor kids were using.
We may have more snow today… or we may not. Stayton hasn’t been getting hit as hard as some places here [...]
We had a few inches of snow yesterday, which meant there were various children outside, squealing and sledding and all that good stuff.
The photo above is Fern Ridge Rd., which I can testify was rather slippery. Cars seemed to be handling it okay, but it was tough to walk on. The photo at right is [...]
We had snow…ish weather again yesterday. It wasn’t full on snow, but more like snow pellets, I guess. Either way, it made things white.
On a side note, thanks to the cool folks at Stayton Cooperative Telephone Company and Willamette Valley Internet for quickly finding out the cause of my phone and internet connection being down [...]
It snowed yesterday. We didn’t get very much at my house… not sure about the rest of town. My opportunities to take photos were very limited (a sick dog and slick roads meant I had to stay home).
Nearby Salem and Portland got a lot more snow than we did. Today’s weather is going to [...]
Today’s photo is another shot from fog-filled Sunday. I took this shot at the same place I took Tuesday’s photo, a power canal waterway off of 4th Ave.
