Mossalicious
From the completely random file, here’s a sidewalk covered in moss. You might be asking yourself, “Self, why is she posting a photo of a sidewalk covered in moss? Is she out of decent photos again?” The answer is yes, I am currently out of decent photos. Blame the weather, as it’s been uncooperative lately. Yes, that’s it, it’s all Mother Nature’s fault! Really, it is. I swear.

NOTE: I accidentally posted this a day early, because I screwed up the date. So here it is again. I apologize for being an idiot. In fact, can I just make that a permanent disclaimer? I took this photo at my nephew’s girlfriend’s parents house, somewhere between Stayton and Salem. Don’t ask me where, because More >

Today is the third part of the mini downtown sidewalk tour provided by guest photographer Jon Goodman (see also: part 1 and part 2). Today’s photo marks a sidewalk made in 1912. Jon’s description: Another crumbling memory from the past, this one on Florence St., alongside the old Stayton Hardware building. Thanks, Jon, for this More >

We have another downtown sidewalk photo from guest photographer Jon Goodman (see yesterday’s photo). His description: Another sidewalk shot. About 1910 apparently they were poring a lot of sidewalks downtown and one of the things they did was stencil the street names in the concrete. I’ve been paying more attention on my walks and have More >

Guest photographer sent along a few photos showing some interesting aspects of our very old sidewalks in the downtown area, so I thought I’d run them over the next handful of days. Jon’s description of today’s photo: I’ve been looking a lot at concrete lately, specifically our crumbling downtown sidewalks. Much of it is 100 More >
Moss, Magnified

Continuing the moss theme from yesterday, here is a macro (close up) photo of… moss! Yes, you read that right, day two of the moss theme is indeed of moss. Bet you didn’t see that coming! So, anyway… moss. I’d never really looked too closely at it, despite it being all over the place where More >
It Ain’t Easy Being Green

Visitor Mel suggested I photograph some moss, which I thought was a great idea. So yesterday I went moss hunting, and found this lovely bit of green on a tree along 10th Ave. I might post another moss-oriented photo tomorrow. Thanks, Mel, for the idea! I appreciate it.

Here’s a random photo of a random sidewalk on a random part of 3rd Ave. in the historic downtown area of Stayton. I took this between Jensen-Kreitzer and the Friends of the Library Used Book Store.
Marking The Passage Of Time

Guest photographer Jon Goodman sent in today’s photo of a gravestone marker which is slowing being overtaken by moss. He found it at Lone Oak Cemetery, which sits on the corner of 3rd Ave. and Fern Ridge Rd. Well seen, Jon… an image like this really says a lot about the passage of time. Thank More >

I was wandering around Pioneer Park yesterday taking photos, and spotted this moss growing on the ledge of a small building at the edge of the park. It was directly below some rather ugly graffiti (something which doesn’t happen very often in Stayton). If you’re a Flickr member and have your account set to view More >

Today’s photo is of a sidewalk and wrought iron fence on Ida St. I took it as a possible photo for the February 1st City Daily Photo theme day, which was “paths and passages.” (See what I did use, and another alternate). I’ve always liked this fence… it’s very stately.

Celine, this is not a picture comment! I just want to invite you to come to the Grand Opening of our Santiam Senior Center on Thursday the 14th between noon and 6pm. There will be refreshments and door prizes! The address is 41818 Kingston-Jordan Road. Just go south out of town, cross the river, take the first left, and go about two-tenths of a mile. We’re on the right. We’ll have a sign out with balloons attached!! I hope to see you there. Greg
