Today brings the final installment of my road trip to the central Oregon coast. This is another shot from a beach in Newport of some dog walkers and little dog… it just made me smile to see it.
Here’s an aerial view of the beach on Google Maps.
I’ve created a photoset at Flickr of my various [...]
Today is the second day of photos from my road trip to the Oregon coast on Sunday (see also: day 1 – Yaquina Bay Bridge). This photo of my nephew and his girlfriend was taken on a beach in Newport, about an hour before sunset. I have no idea which beach… I wasn’t driving and [...]
This is my last water-oriented photo for now (see also the last several days). This is a view of the lovely Salem Ditch, looking from 3rd Ave. to the bridge on 4th Ave. If you look closely (click on the image to see it larger), there is a person standing on the far bridge, looking [...]

Jake Jolliff (mandolin) and Alex Hargreaves (fiddle) performed last night at Cartwright’s Music Event Center. Jake and Alex are two extremely talented young musicians, and it was a pleasure to see them perform.
They were also briefly joined on stage by Alex’s younger sister, Tatiana (also on fiddle), and Ken [...]
I took the opportunity to snap a photo of Stayton Fire District’s fire chief, Jack Carriger, a couple of weeks ago at the 2009 Santa Cruise. I am huge fan of firefighters, since both of my brothers were volunteers at the department, and the department saved my house last year after it was set on [...]
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 [...]
Guest Photographer Hugo sent in today’s stunning image, taken at Cascades Gateway Park in nearby Salem. His description:
This is a picture of a homeless man in the park with well-worn hands.
His hands seemed to tell of a life of hardship, yet he still had his faith in those same hands.
I liked the lighting and used [...]
I went by Pioneer Park to see if any of the leaves had started to change colors yet (not so far) and saw these two ladies waiting for a photographer to finish setting up is gear so they could have their portraits taken. I know the quality of the image isn’t great… I took this [...]

Last night I went to the Oregon State Fair in Salem, and attended the Peter Cetera (with the Oregon Symphony) concert. I’ve created a Flickr photoset from the concert with a bunch of photos, if you’re interested.
I would like to thank the powers that be for the non-rain during [...]
The Friends of the Library Used Book Store on 3rd Ave. has turned a year old. They’re celebrating its birthday this week, so I popped in yesterday to eat a cookie and to chat with the lovely ladies you see above, Frances Shinkle (left) and Carol Tabor, two of the volunteers who work at the [...]

Last night was the final concert in the summer concert series put on by Ken Cartwright of KENC Community Radio and Cartwright’s Music Repair Shop, and sponsored by Monte’s Coins & More and the Stayton Parks and Recreation department.
Singer Tracy Reynolds performed several of her songs of her CD [...]

As promised yesterday, here are the photos from the free outdoor concert held at Pioneer Park on August 4th. Performing were the local chapter of the Oregon Old Time Fiddlers Association with Dale Emery. Ken Cartwright (shown above, left, with Dale Emery), who put together the show, also performed [...]

As promised, here are some photos from the street fair part of the Santiam SummerFest, held on Saturday in downtown Stayton. I tried to give an idea of how many people attended in the photo above, but it wasn’t easy. The road the street fair was held on is [...]

Yesterday was the 2009 Santiam SummerFest in downtown Stayton. I took a fair amount of photos, so I thought I’d spread things out over the next few days.
First up: bed races. Three teams showed up with rather cool bed racers and competed on a side street at the SummerFest. [...]
Two. There was also a guy in the truck down below. I took this on Washington St., next to the A&W Restaurant.
