Tall trees at Pioneer Park - stayton oregon

There’s nothing like looking up at trees which have been around for years to decades, and will probably still be there when I’m gone. It keeps things in perspective.

I’m terrible at identified trees, plants, flowers, etc., but I know at least part of these are douglas firs. Look for the branches with dark green needles. Or don’t. Don’t worry, there won’t be a quiz later.

This is yet another photo taken at Pioneer Park in Stayton. You might have guessed this, but I adore this park. It’s very photogenic, and just a peaceful place. It’s tucked back in the corner of town, in a residential area, so there’s very little traffic.

Not that Stayton is a high traffic area, anyway. Heck, most of the folks in town actually stop their cars to let pedestrians cross the street at crosswalks. I know, that’s truly fascinating.

Hey, what was today’s photo topic again? I seem to have wandered away from it. Oh, well.
