I happened by the Star Cinema on 3rd Ave. a couple of days ago, and noticed they have repaired their awesome neon sign. The last time I noticed it, some of the letters were dark. I have no idea when that happened, but I’m very glad they did. The people who run the Star do a wonderful job.

I’ve posted photos of Rumours Restaurant & Lounge on 3rd Ave. before, but I was in the area a couple of nights ago, so I’m doing it again. I love the lighted signs on this place.

I went to go see “How To Train Your Dragon” 3D last night at the Star Cinema, so I took a picture on the way out. That just might be my scooter at the bottom left of the photo. The Star just upgraded their screen and projector for the full 3D experience, and “Dragon” is More >

Guest photographer Jon Goodman sent in today’s photo. His description: Peering into Porter & Lau in the late afternoon dusk, comes this glowing offer. For those who don’t know, Porter & Lau, also known as Porter TV & Appliance, was an electronics and appliance store in downtown Stayton on 3rd Ave. The long closed building More >

(Click here to see a Flickr photoset from the event!) Last night a benefit concert was held at the Star Cinema for Ken Cartwright, in order to help pay for some medical bills associated with some recent health problems. Ken, for those who don’t know, has done quite a lot for the Stayton area community, More >
This Flower Will Never Wilt

I’ve been posting a lot of flowers lately (yay, spring!), so in an effort to show you something entirely different, here’s a neon sign with… oh, look. It has a flower on it. It even says “flowers.” Darn. Well, I tried. Kinda. This sign hangs in one of the windows at the Roth’s grocery store More >

This awesome sign sits above the Santiam Depot / Rumours Lounge on 3rd Ave. in downtown Stayton. Note: I’m not sure it’s still called Santiam Depot, despite the sign… but it was for years, so I’m calling it both to be safe. I posted a nighttime shot of the building, including the sign, back in More >

I’ve posted photos of the neon sign on the Star Cinema movie theater on 3rd Ave., but I adore it, so I’m doing it again. Part of the neon is in need of repair, which isn’t surprising. That sign has been around for many decades, and is in remarkably good shape, considering its age.

I adore this neon sign on the Santiam Depot / Rumours Lounge Restaurant on 3rd Ave. It has that cool retro feel.

I attended a car show at the A&W Restaurant last night, but I’m far too tired to get those photos processed. So instead, here’s a photo of some neon in the window the restaurant. Fries. Mmmmmmmm. I’ll post a car shot or two for tomorrow’s post.

This is part of the front of the Red Apple Restaurant on 2nd Ave. I’ve kind of gotten into shooting neon signs lately. There aren’t many around town, but some may pop up on here now and then. On a side note: Happy birthday, Mom. I love you.
