The weather here has been pretty mild this month. I took the above photo off of Fern Ridge Rd., looking east at a shed in a fairly large field. It doesn’t look like the middle of winter to me… not that I’m complaining. Though with this weather, our snow pack on the mountains hasn’t been [...]

The weather ’round these parts went kind of wacky. The Portland area saw a fair bit of snow, but at my house here in Stayton we saw a couple minutes of light flakes and then we were through. That’s boring, though, so today I’m posting a photo my brother took with his cell/mobile phone in [...]

Further proof that it’s been darned cold outside, Jon Goodman sent in another nifty photo of some ice on water behind Pioneer Park — be sure to see yesterday’s photo, too. Brrrr.
Thanks to Jon, as always.

I’ve been taking this same shot at Neitling Park over the course of the last year or so, to show the difference in the trees during the various seasons. I would have liked to take this during the snow we had last month, but I wasn’t able to get to the park because of the [...]

The snow is all but gone now (it’s been replaced by a lot of rain), but I still can’t get out and take photos. So here’s another snow shot. Yay.
If anyone out there has Stayton area photos you would like to share, please send them along (site [at] specialweb.com or celine.chamberlin [at] gmail.com). I’d love [...]

The snow is mostly melted at my house, but that doesn’t mean I can’t post at least one more snow photo. I still haven’t been able to go out and take pictures (it’s been two weeks since I’ve gone anywhere outside of my neighborhood to shoot)… I hope I can rectify that this weekend or [...]

I discovered a late last night my blog hadn’t updated since the 23rd, so my Christmas Eve and Christmas day posts didn’t get posted like they should have been. Which is a bit of a bummer. I apologize… Blogger’s update thing must have been wacky. They’re up now.
In other news, we had a wee bit [...]

Merry Christmas Eve to all who celebrate the day, and to everyone in general — I hope you have a happy day.
I don’t normally post photos of my pets on this blog — I kind of have a rule against it, actually — but desperate times call for desperate measures. I still can’t go anywhere, [...]

So. It snowed again. And this wasn’t the pretty snow of the other day. This snow was all over the place, and it was icy, and it was incredibly annoying.
I went out for only a few minutes to take photos yesterday. I’m still stuck at home, since my scooter can’t go in snow. I really [...]

Everything just kind of froze yesterday. All the trees and plants had thick layers of ice covering them, and freezing rain kept on falling from the sky.
I had planned on taking a trip to the grocery store yesterday, but didn’t feel like slip sliding all over the roads. Oh, and I should mention the wind [...]

More snow photos from Friday (see yesterday’s post for more). The photo above is of some snow-covered Douglas-Fir trees, and the photo at right is a couple of plastic sleds some neighbor kids were using.
We may have more snow today… or we may not. Stayton hasn’t been getting hit as hard as some places here [...]

We had a few inches of snow yesterday, which meant there were various children outside, squealing and sledding and all that good stuff.
The photo above is Fern Ridge Rd., which I can testify was rather slippery. Cars seemed to be handling it okay, but it was tough to walk on. The photo at right is [...]

We had snow…ish weather again yesterday. It wasn’t full on snow, but more like snow pellets, I guess. Either way, it made things white.
On a side note, thanks to the cool folks at Stayton Cooperative Telephone Company and Willamette Valley Internet for quickly finding out the cause of my phone and internet connection being down [...]

It snowed yesterday. We didn’t get very much at my house… not sure about the rest of town. My opportunities to take photos were very limited (a sick dog and slick roads meant I had to stay home).
Nearby Salem and Portland got a lot more snow than we did. Today’s weather is going to [...]

Since most of the snow seems to have melted around here, I figured I’d post snow photos once more before moving on to other things. Today’s photos were taken at Lone Oak Cemetery on the corner of Fern Ridge Rd. and 3rd Ave.
Be sure to tune in tomorrow for the February 1st city daily photo [...]
