Earlier this month, I posted a photo of the front doors to the public high school. I also took a picture of the front of the gym, so you’re getting that, too.
The high school is indeed the home of the Eagles, the name of the sports teams for the school. Not that I [...]
I took this very early one morning (before 6am) just as it was starting to get light prior to the sun making its first appearance for the day. It looks out over a farm on E. Santiam St.
I am anything but a morning person, so I want you to fully appreciate the sacrifice I made [...]
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 major [...]
As promised yesterday, today’s post is of the car show at the Santiam SummerFest street fair held Saturday here in town.
The car show was held in Neitling Park, and there were a ton of cars. I couldn’t even begin to get to all of them, but I did get shot of about 40 cars. And [...]
Yesterday, I attended the annual Santiam SummerFest in historic downtown Stayton.
There were a lot of people, a lot of interesting booths, a lot of awesome food, and other great stuff. I’ve created a Flickr photoset of the event showcasing some of the sights. Visit, view, be entertained.
In related news, the photos from the Santiam Gallery [...]
Flower photo time. I had to do it… it’s too pretty to not post. I found it in a flower pot in front of the City Hall.
In other news, today is the SummerFest here in town. If you go, please stop by the YMCA to see the entrants and winners of the Santiam Gallery of [...]
Last night I attended the first concert in the brand new Mill Creek Concert Series, a series of free concerts put together by Ken Cartwright.
Last night’s performer was renowned western music singer Joni Harms from Canby, Oregon. She put on a great show, and was very kind and accommodating to her fans (including a certain [...]
This bit of sunset two nights ago was situated between clouds and the ground, looking like it was being torn from the sky. This was taken at the corner of 3rd Ave. and Fern Ridge Rd.
I’m not sure when it happened, but I noticed the other day the police department on 3rd Ave. had a bit of a face lift. It used to be one could only see a vague outline of the words ‘police department’… it was so faint, in fact, I didn’t even realize it was actually there [...]
The stairway leads to the second floor above either Jensen-Kreitzer on 3rd Ave., or one of the buildings next to it. It happened to be open when I passed by it.
Note: I played with the colors in the image… the original had a golden tone to it, so I played it up some.
This little flower was sitting in a flower pot outside of City Hall yesterday. It’s a little past its prime, but it’s still adorable. There is beauty in imperfection.
By the way, I saw “The Dark Night” yesterday. It rocks.
I took the image above during the town parade on the 4th of July. There were a lot of flags in the parade, both big and small.
I’m aware some folks outside of the United States are curious as to why we Americans are so fond of our flag. Each part of the flag means something [...]
I passed by the Charles and Martha Brown House a few days ago, and noticed it was being worked on so I thought I’d take a picture. It’s great to see it making progress, as a like of volunteer man hours have gone into restoring it. See the Brown House web site for more information [...]
As I threat… um, promised yesterday, here are some shots I took at the latest Stro’s Wednesday Nite Cruise-In.
The car in the above photo is a 1959 Edsel convertible. The car at right is something else entirely. What that something else is, I haven’t a clue. As usual. I only knew the first one because [...]
I attended another classic car cruise-in (see the event’s web site) last night at the A&W. I haven’t processed most of the photos yet, but I did get a photo of the ring leader, Russ Strohmeyer (left — didn’t get the name of his assistant). He emcees each event, and raffles off donated prizes to [...]
