Downtown Signs
The building above is on 3rd Ave. It sits in the heart of historic downtown Stayton… which is approximately 4 or 5 blocks long, and a street or two wide. It’s not exactly a large historic downtown, but it is historic and it is downtown, so that’s really all that matters.

From the truly random file comes today’s photo of some writing on a newspaper recycling bin at the Circle K on E. Washington St. I don’t know why I’m posting it, but I am.

I happened by a laundromat near the south end of 1st Ave. last night, so I took a picture through the window. After I started this post, I realized I’d taken a very, very similar shot (and even processed it pretty much the same way) back in 2008. I guess my brain decided doing a More >

I took this photo one night a week or two ago of a window display at Cartwright’s Music Repair Shop on 3rd Ave. Guitars are beautiful creatures.

I wanted to buy a tree the other day, so I went to Yarnell Grower’s Outlet on 1st to get it. I didn’t really expect anyone in town to have this particular tree, but they had not one, but four. It was rather awesome. I didn’t take my camera into the nursery itself (I wasn’t More >

These colorful t-shirts were for sale outside of the Jensen-Kreitzer Clothing store in downtown Stayton on 3rd Ave. In other news, don’t miss the 10th Annual Garden Tour tomorrow (the 27th) from noon to 5pm to benefit the restoration of the Brown House. Visit the Brown House’s web site for more information. I don’t think More >
Wilco & Farmers

Wilco Farmers is an agricultural store, with a lot of area farms for customers. I thought the truck sitting in front of it, piled up with hay bales, was appropriate. I was going to wax eloquently about American farms and so on, but my ability to be eloquent is offline today. Insert your own thoughts More >

This door and wall are part of the building comprising the old Porter TV & Appliance building on the corner of 3rd Ave. and Marion St. The store hasn’t been open for many years, and shows a lot of wear. Still, there’s something about that building I adore. I bought my first 45rpm record in More >

In an effort to post something not involving flowers, I went out to take photos yesterday. Needless to say, most of what I shot was of flowers, but I did manage to sneak in a few other things. Not much, though. This buildings on E. Water St. has seen better days. It used to have More >
Library, Southwest Side

I took this shot of the Stayton Public Library a few weeks ago, so the trees have probably filled in more since then. I haven’t been able to go out and take photos in the last handful of days, so I’m having to reach back into my photo archives a bit.

Yesterday, I posted a photo taken on 3rd Ave. looking south, so for no reason whatsoever, here’s a photo taken in basically the same spot, looking the other direction. This time it’s looking up at some businesses instead of the sidewalk, so I suppose that’s different. For a historical view of things, these buildings were More >
