Sky Trails
Jul 18th
Guest photographer Theresa Smith from D-Tail Pet Grooming sent in today’s photo. Her description:
This plane flew over our house a few days back and I liked how the sun was shining of the plane and the “steam” from it.
I love plane contrails, and she certainly captured these nicely. Thanks, Theresa.
Stro’s Wedneday Nite Cruise-In
Jun 17th
(Click here to see my Flickr photoset of the car show!)
Last night was one of the twice-monthly Stro’s Wedneday Nite Cruise-In car shows held at the A&W Restaurant on Washington St. I took various photos of various things on various cars, so if you’re feeling variable (no, I don’t know why I wrote that), check out the photos on the Flickr photoset I created. The are twenty-something of them.
One of the photos shows a beautiful black 1966 Thunderbird, which is owned by the guy who owns the A&W. I didn’t get his name because I am an idiot, but he’s a very nice person.
Day Trippin’
Jun 16th
I took this photo a couple of weekends ago. The guy on the motorcycle in front was very kind to wave at the camera.
This photo was taken on the bridge which spans the Santiam River, just past the southern city limits. I’m not sure if it’s technically 1st Ave. or Stayton-Scio Rd. at that point. I know it’s right where Marion County meets Linn County, since one of the signs is in the photo. Very helpful, that.
Domestic & Imported
May 28th
I took this photo of a nifty old Ford Chevy (thanks for the correction, Mel!) truck sitting outside of the Fey Asian Chinese restaurant last month, and completely forgot it existed. I was happy to find it, since I haven’t been out to take photos in almost two weeks, so I’m having to scrounge to find photos. But, hey! If you want to submit a photo of the Stayton area for this here blog thang, then that would be rather awesome.
In “oh wow I just realized this” news, the 30th marks the fourth anniversary of Stayton Daily Photo. That’s pretty amazing, since I never expected to last a year, let alone four. I have absolutely nothing planned to commemorate the day, since I just remembered. Hmm.
All In A Row
May 10th
Today’s terribly exciting photo is of some construction equipment sitting next to Norpac Cannery, on the corner of W. Washington St. and Evergreen Ave. And if that’s not thrilling enough, here’s the Google Maps Street View of the wall of palettes found in the background of the photo! Gosh, I hope I haven’t overloaded you with excitement.
2010 Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival – Part 1
Apr 26th
Yesterday I attended the last day of the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival near Woodburn. It was as beautiful as I remembered it being two years ago. The weather was perfect, and I only fell on my backside (where I have a lot of padding) once.
The photo above shows a nifty steam-powered tractor they ran up and down the fields. It added a nice touch to the atmosphere of the festival.
I am entirely too tired to process the vast majority of the photos I took, so I’ll just post the one for today, and there will be more posted tomorrow. Stay tuned.
