In honor of it being Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d post something adorable for today. These stuffed bears were at Postal Connections on Shaff Rd. the other day, and it’s hard to pass up this much cute. So I didn’t try.

I hope everyone is having a great day today, whether you celebrate Christmas or are just enjoying the start of the weekend. Take care, all, and stay safe out there.
Meanwhile, I’ll be in mourning because I won’t be able to post anymore Christmas-oriented photos until next December.

Merry Christmas Eve, to all who celebrate the day. I spotted this lighted Christmas decoration along Ida St., and thought it would be fitting to post today.

This is adorable — someone actually put a boat in their front yard as part of their holiday display. Frosty the Snowman has a fishing pole and presents loaded in the boat. I love it. Makes me want to buy a boat so I can copy it.
I spotted this just off of 3rd Ave.

It’s the latest in North Pole fashion, don’t ya know. Santa always tries to stay up on all the latest trends.
I spotted this on the window of a convenience store on 1st Ave.

These photos are from a lovely little window display at Harold’s Jewelers on 3rd Ave.
I want to thank the folks who walked by while I was taking photos for not thinking I was robbing the place. Which would be stupid of me, anyway, since Harold’s is right across the street from the police station. Not [...]

This somewhat craptacular photo is of Stayton’s Christmas tree on 3rd Ave. It’s a pretty little thing, I have to say. The tree, not the photo. I might have mentioned the photo is craptacular. Click on it to see it in greater splotchy detail.
I’m happy it’s not a leaner like last year’s tree, although that [...]

Christmas is now less than a week away, Hanukkah is wrapping up, and 2009 is almost over. I think part of me is stll trying to adjust to the world being in the 2000’s, let along 9 years in.
Anyway, this photo was taken of the front of a festive looking apartment building, once known as [...]

And I have to say, it’s not looking so good for you.
The weather hasn’t exactly been conducive to doing anything other than staying inside to avoid (last week) freezing one’s backside off or (this week) rain, rain, and more rain. So a random macro photo of a Santa Claus Christmas decoration it is. [...]

A small family, but a family, nonetheless. I found this somewhere along Washington St.

Today’s photo is a somewhat random macro picture of a bit of fiber optic lights on one of my Christmas decorations. I like the pretty colors.

(See my Flickr photoset from this event!)
Saturday was this year’s Holiday Craft Bazaar, held at Stayton Middle School. There were a lot of booths, a lot of people, and I have a small amount of photos to show for it. Check ‘em out at my Flickr photoset from the bazaar.
Thanks to those who allowed me [...]

The 19th Annual Santa Cruise, a fundraiser for the Stayton Fire Department’s Toys For Joy program, was held on Saturday morning. I did my best to take photos, but it was extremely cold (sub-freezing), so I didn’t get as many as I would have liked. I heard there were well over 200 hundred cars. Not [...]

Yesterday morning was the 19th Annual Santa Cruise at the Stayton Fire Department, a car show and breakfast benefiting Toys For Joy. I took several photos of cars and such, but haven’t gone through them yet. So instead I decided to post a celebrity — Santa Claus. It doesn’t get much bigger than that. He [...]

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 [...]
