Today is this month’s City Daily Photo theme day, with the theme “Waiting.” I felt a photo of a Salvation Army bell ringer to be appropriate for the theme, since these volunteers ring their bells and wait for donations, often in the cold, as it was yesterday when I took this photo. Check out the [...]
This is my favorite little street bridge at the south end of 4th Ave., where it crosses a power canal. It wasn’t really all that cold the day I took this, but the barren trees make it seem like it was.
The old Chevy truck was parked right next to where I took yesterday’s photo, so here’s a random photo of a random pickup parked on 4th Ave. a few days back.
I took this a few days ago of the beautifully named Salem Ditch, a man made waterway which runs through town. This particular view of it is off of 4th Ave., facing east. There are still bits of autumn color around, and I am drawn to them. I simply cannot resist.
As promised yesterday, here are a few photos I took of some of the musical instruments at Cartwright’s Music Repair a few days ago. Thanks to Ken for letting me wander the place.
Don’t forget to read about how you can help get Stayton’s community radio station KENC back on the air!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Yesterday, I posted a plea of sorts to help Ken Cartwright get KENC back on the radio airwaves (follow the link to find out how to help!). I had gone to Cartwright’s Music Repair to talk to Ken — since that’s his business and where he was and it would be silly to [...]
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 by [...]
I stole these (okay, I have permission) off of guest photographer John Brandt’s Flickr photostream. I love this car, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The photo at right shows more of the car itself. Click on it to see it larger.
I posted a photo of the back end of it back in 2007, [...]
This is the back door to Stayton Elementary School. I took it earlier this month for a “doorway” City Daily Photo theme day post, but ended up going with another photo.
This door at the school gets far more traffic than the front, since it’s the door near where the kids get dropped off and picked [...]
The Wilco Farmers store on 1st Ave. is dressed up for the holidays. They were the first business or house I saw lit up — I took this on the 12th.
News about KENC Radio:
If you haven’t heard, the FCC shut down KENC Community Radio due to what they say are transmission violations. Oregonlive has an [...]
I took this a few days ago at the Safeway grocery store on 1st Ave. The little bitty pumpkins all tied up in net bags looks cute.
In vaguely related news, I still have a room full of Halloween decorations to put away. I’ve almost decided to call it “theme” room and call it good. [...]
Guest photographer Jon Goodman sent in today’s photo. His description:
During a rare sunbreak Wednesday I got out for my walk and found these mushrooms growing on a rotting log behind pioneer park.
Very cool. They look like little pumpkins. Thanks to Jon for sending in another nifty photo.

I took this photo for the City Daily Photo doorway theme day at the beginning of the month, but ended up using a different one instead. So I’m posting it now.
This is the stone stairway at the Holm Building on 2nd Ave. I posted a photo of the whole building back in 2006, but had [...]
Oh, look, I’m posting another photo of trees. But I’ve been ill so I have an excuse. Or maybe I just love trees. Or both.
I took this on Shaff Rd., across from Bi-Mart. No, unlike yesterday’s photo, I did not stop in the middle of the road to take this photo. I would have been [...]
Yesterday I’d hoped to post a photo of something else, but I wasn’t feeling well yesterday and didn’t get it finished. Instead, I’m posting a photo I took a handful of days ago on Gardner Ave. The trees were pretty.
For the record, yes, I stopped on my scooter and took a photo in the middle [...]
