Located in Oregon, USA, featuring Stayton and other nearby towns in the Willamette Valley.
Green Water
One more time into the ditch. Yes, friends, I can’t seem to stay away from the rather pretty ditch which runs through Stayton.
This photo is of some trees and bushes being reflected into the water, taken at Pioneer Park. It’s very green. I like it.

This man was sitting in the grass while his dog played in the water at Pioneer Park the other day. So I took a picture. And posted it here.

(Click here to see my Flickr photoset from the concert!) Last night was the second of two free summer concerts held at Pioneer Park, this time featuring The Oregon Valley Boys, an Oregon-based western swing band.

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 little girl who owns this wagon was off playing with her dad, giggling and having a great time. It’s More >

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 >
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 >
A Random Bit Of Branches

Yep. Branches. Greenish branches because of moss. Yep. So, uh… yep. That’s about it, really. Oh, well, I took this photo at Pioneer Park. Other than that… nothing, really. Yep.

These Douglas-Fir trees live at Pioneer Park. Douglas-Firs are all over the place in this part of Oregon, and I adore them. I love all trees, really, but these are my favorites. So tall and grand.
Twice As Nice

Visitor and great idea person Jason Jones suggested I do a “then and now” comparison of the Stayton-Jordan Bridge. He pointed me to some photos in the Salem Library online archive of the bridge, taken around 1960. And so I shall. I don’t want to post the Library’s photos here because it would violate their More >

Gorgeous
yike’s Lynn — you here too — love to see you skinny-dipping but this patch of water don’t look all that fresh and healthy so I’d have to advice against it — hope you’re getting over your flu — but you might catch something lethal here.

Lynn, whatever tickles your fancy.
It isn’t deep, so I’m not sure how effective swimming would be… but you’d sure give others at the park quite the show. ;
Thanks, Chris/Deb. I’m glad you like it.
Gerald, the water’s just fine… the green’s only a reflection. The water itself is very clear. Thanks for the compliment on the photo.
