Just hanging out
The Jordan Bridge at Pioneer Park in Stayton is a great place to hang out. Weddings are held there, as are bridge card games, picnics, etc., and the Annual Covered Bridge Festival. To me, though, it’s just a nifty place to stand and look out over the park or the water. It’s also a lovely place to photograph.

Drift On Forever Seeking

It’s been a remarkably long time since I last posted a photo of my favorite Stayton landmark (February, to be exact), so it’s high time to do it again. Oh, Jordan Bridge at Pioneer Park, I just can’t stay away. You call to me like a siren’s song. Or that could be tinnitus. Whichever. Speaking More >
Little Red Wagon

Guest photographer Hugo sent in today’s lovely photo. His description: The setting sun set this little red wagon glowing in Pioneer Park and, since I had my camera at the ready, I took the shot.

The Onset Of Life

It’s been a remarkably long time since I last posted a flower photo (nine whole days!), so here’s another one. I took this photo at the edge of Pioneer Park, near the big rock at the entrance. I thought I knew what it was, but a Google search proved me wrong. So I don’t have More >
Coast Road Trip: Part 1
about 6 months ago - 6 comments
I went to the Oregon coast on Sunday for a day trip, so I thought it might be fun to post some of the photos I took. We went to Lincoln City, Depoe Bay, and Newport, so I’ll probably post at least one photo from each of those places over the next few days. Today’s More >
Ready For Some B-Ball

Nothing exciting today, just a photo of the basketball court area at Pioneer Park. I haven’t been able to go out and take new photos for the last handful of days due to rainy weather, so I’m scraping the bottom of the barrel at the moment. I took this earlier this week when I was More >
