This month’s theme day was an interesting one — to photograph someone from the waist down. I didn’t end up taking my photo until two days ago, since I was having trouble finding an appropriate subject.
Think you can guess who the two men in my photo are doing? It shouldn’t be difficult — the red [...]
Every year, Stayton hangs lighted Christmas decorations from various telephone poles on a few of the main streets of town. The photo above is of 2nd Ave., between the phone company and the post office. It always makes me smile to see the decorations every year.
By the way, today is the six month anniversary of [...]
Today we have a talented guest photographer, Dave Neilson from StaytonEvents.com. The photo above was taken just west of town where Rainwater Lane crosses the tracks, looking towards Stayton.
It’s simply beautiful, with the mountains in the back and the nifty perspective.
StaytonEvents.com is a great resource to find out what’s going on in town, from school [...]
Monday brought a great big huge enormous weather event in the form of some hail and a bit of snow. It was simply terrible trying to trudge through the mildly damp street to get to the snow, which only stuck to yards and rooftops.
I decided to take my photo from a neighbor’s yard, since I [...]
Back in August, I posted a photo of a nifty neon sign inside a building long since out of business in downtown Stayton. You can also see a photo I took of the building itself.
The structure is pretty run down, but it still fascinates me whenever I pass by. The photo above is of a [...]
I guess there’s no denying it now — Christmas really is less than a month away. The above is my first Christmas lights sighting of the year. You can’t really see it in the photo, but there are still pumpkins sitting next to the porch of the house.
We used to go all out [...]
The photo above was taken next to the construction going on at the Stayton Library. The library sits next to a park and the community center with several paved paths going in various directions. The path in the picture runs between the library and the community center.

I hope everyone who celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday had a great holiday. My brother and his family came out to our house and we ate entirely too much, talked too loud, and nobody got in a fight with anyone, so it was all good.
That’s my 14-year-old niece pictured above eating during Thanksgiving dinner. I don’t know [...]
Happy Thanksgiving! It’s time to give thanks, so let me name a few things I’m thankful for:
This blog and its visitors and commenters (you rock!), all the daily photo bloggers out there (especially Eric at Paris Daily Photo for starting it all), my family (both two- and four-legged), and M&M’s (just because).
The photo above is [...]
There’s been a bit of a battle going on the skies over Stayton — the sun vs. the clouds. And, unfortunately, the clouds are winning at the moment. I did manage to get a photo of the sun almost breaking through the other day. It was a glorious, albeit brief, moment.
In case you [...]
This is a view of the parking lot at the Safeway grocery store in Stayton on a cold, wet night.
Actually, I can’t remember if it was cold… but it sounds more dramatic to say it was, so let’s pretend.
I took the above during a mad dash to the store on my scooter in [...]
Okay, so it’s been raining a lot, which makes it a bit difficult to go out and take photos. That’s why I’m posting yet another photo of trees, one which I took the other day. Yep, the only reason. It’s not that I’m obsessed with taking photos of trees or anything. Nope.
These trees — dunno [...]
Yesterday morning was thick with fog, so I toddled outside to take a few photos of it just before sunrise. I’m anything but a morning person, so in my sleep deprived state most of the photos came out blurry. The one above is the sole survivor of my excursion.
That excursion, incidentally, took me as far [...]
I had to go get a flu shot near the hospital yesterday, so I thought I’d get a photo of it while I was there. So, I got a photo of it while I was there. You know me, I’m always thinking.
This is the main entrance to the hospital. The white van nearest the building [...]
Another new home is being constructed, this time just off of 6th Ave. in Stayton. The workers on the roof in the photo are brave souls… makes me dizzy just to look at them up there.
My favorite part of the photo? The colorful trees behind the house, of course. Gotta love autumn.
