Yesterday I featured some photos from Cartwright’s Music. Ken Carwright, owner of the music shop, also runs a new community-based radio station, KENC (AM 1620) in a room next to the shop. He let me poke around in there and take some pictures.
It’s a nice setup, complete with a large window facing 3rd Ave. so [...]
As mentioned yesterday, I spent part of Tuesday taking photos at Cartwright’s Music on 3rd Ave. Since I couldn’t decide on just one photo to post, here’s a mosaic of some detail shots of some of the goodies at the shop.
Tomorrow I’ll post some shots I took of Stayton’s new community radio station Ken Cartwright [...]
Meet Amanda-Lynn (read: “a mandolin”), an adorable and very friendly little French bull dog puppy. She hangs out at Cartwright’s Music on 3rd Ave. with her owner, Ken Cartwright.
I took a bunch of photos at Carwright’s yesterday, so I’ll be featuring one or two of them over the next couple of days. Thanks, as always, [...]
*sigh*
Well, here we are with more autumn leaves. My camera, completely on its own, immediately gravitates to any and all autumn leaves in its vicinity. See, it’s not even my fault, they’re just too picture-worthy.
The lame pun in the title is my fault, though.
My brain still hasn’t wrapped around it being the holiday season. When I saw a house all decorated with Christmas lights the other day, it took me a minute to figure out what was going on. I’m not overly bright.
Anyway, since it is the season of lightened decoration thingies, I figured I might as well [...]
I was at Postal Connections on Shaff Rd. the other day, and they had adorable little stuffed toys on display, so I took a few pictures. It’s what I do.
Here are a couple of other shots of cuteness from the store:
Yes. Another photo of autumn leaves. But it’s been… um… oh, 10 days since I last posted one! I think that shows remarkable restraint on my part. Besides, soon they’ll all be gone, so I have to get in while I can.
This tree lives near the top of the hill on 10th Ave., otherwise known [...]
Today is the second photo of Clear Lake on the McKenzie Pass from guest photographer Ronda Faught (don’t miss yesterday’s image).
Be sure to visit Ronda’s new web site for more of her awesome photography. You’ll be glad you did.
Thanks again to Ronda for sharing her photos!

Happy Thanksgiving! Gobble, gobble, and all that good stuff. Mainly, though, it’s a time to be thankful for the good things in our lives. One of the things I’m thankful for is the guest photographers who’ve kindly let me post their photos.
Ronda Faught, guest photographer extraordinaire from nearby Sublimity, has once again provided two lovely [...]
I guess the holiday season is truly here. I happened by some workers who were putting up the city Christmas tree on 3rd Ave. yesterday… it took me completely by surprise. Yes, I know Thanksgiving is tomorrow, but I still have Halloween decorations to put away.
I managed to go out and take some new photos [...]
It was a cold and dreary day when I took this photo last week. The whole sky just said, and I quote, “Ick.” But the mostly barren tree branches made it prettier, so it was okay.
The title comes from the fact the tree branches look like hands. Cold dead hands.
It’s been raining since the day [...]
This is the stairway entrance to the St. Mary’s Catholic Cemetery on 3rd Ave. It leads to a pathway which leads to the main part of the cemetery. That big silver thing on the right is the town’s water tower.
Just past this stairway is where a lot of us in town sit to watch the [...]
This is the top part of an old garage on 2nd Ave. According to the Stayton-Sublimity Chamber Of Commerce web site, it was built in 1885. That’s a few years back. Check out their downtown walking tour page (it’s #10 on the list) for more info.
I posted a photo of the whole building last year, [...]
This nifty classic truck, a green International, just happened to be passing by when I was taking photos downtown not long ago. Since that area of town has a lot of decades old buildings, it feels like the photo was taken a long time ago. Well, except for the modern vehicles on the right of [...]
This welcome sign hangs in the window of a business on 3rd Ave. I can’t remember which business, of course. I’m lucky I remembered which street it’s on.
Anyway, consider this a welcome to all who visit here — first timers and repeat offenders alike.
