Scenes From A Radio Station
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 passersby can look in and see what’s going on.

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.
Nice Curves

When I was at Cartwright’s on Saturday night for a concert, I took advantage of the situation and took more photos of the musical instruments lining some of the walls. I adore this guitar — don’t know if it’s electric, acoustic, or a hybrid — so it’s the one I’m posting. I know, brilliant of More >
Alex Hargreaves & Jake Jolliff Concert

(See my Flickr photoset of the concert!) Jake Jolliff (mandolin) and Alex Hargreaves (fiddle) performed last night at Cartwright’s Music Event Center. Jake and Alex are two extremely talented young musicians, and it was a pleasure to see them perform. They were also briefly joined on stage by Alex’s younger sister, Tatiana (also on fiddle), More >
Help Get KENC Radio Back On The Air
about 9 months ago - 4 comments
I mentioned this the other day, but wanted to highlight it again because I feel it deserves more attention. Please note: I’m not affiliated with the station, I just want to see it get back on the air. The FCC recently shut down KENC Radio, a community-based radio station here in Stayton which was run More >
A Visit To Cartwright’s Music & Repair
about 2 years ago - 3 comments
Cartwright’s Music & Repair Shop will be closing its retail doors in a few weeks time. This is a major bummer. So I stopped by on Saturday during the SummerFest to get a few shots in while I was in the neighborhood. There were a lot of folks in the shop taking advantage of the More >

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 More >

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 More >
Little Train
about 2 years ago - 1 comment
I was scootering around downtown again last night, and spotted this little toy train in the window of Stayton’s new community-based radio station. A place I keep meaning to visit. Anyway, I’m surprised the shot came out as well as it did. There was very little light, and I couldn’t use a flash, as it More >
Feelin’ Groovy

Cartwright’s Music on 3rd Avenue always has a display of very pretty musical instruments in the front windows, and they’re even prettier at night. The thumbnail at right is another one of the guitars on display. By the way, I didn’t think about today being Flag Day, or I would have posted my American flag More >
Guitar Wall

Yesterday I had the pleasure of drooling over several very pretty musical instruments at Cartwright’s Music on 3rd Avenue. The owner, Ken Cartwright, graciously let me take photos of the pretties. I intend to go back and take more. Photos, that is. I personally own two guitars, one of which I bought from Cartwright’s earlier More >

I’m convinced that your pictures are the best archive of visual images of Stayton in the year 2007 that exists anywhere I know about…

Love, love, LOVE your site.
I’m always on the lookout for how others capture color in combinations in the world around them. I have no idea how that might translate into keywords on google (as if it might be someone’s specialty), so it’s usually just a matter of happening upon someone’s photo here or there as I websurf. Today, it was your site, as I searched for a particular blue. Still looking (for that particular blue), but it’s been a lovely break in my day, scrolling around your site.
Thanks.
