Old bicycle next to a wooden fence near Stayton Oregon

Guest photographer Tom Miller brings us a photo of this nicely aged bicycle for today. This is the kind of bike any self-respecting hipster would love, but only if they saw it first.

Oak trees separated by a wrought iron fence in Stayton Oregon

Long-time followers of this here site thing might be aware of my love for these two awesome oak trees. They live at the edge of a yard on a side street behind the hospital, and I’ve taken many photos of them in the past.

I noticed a fence company staking out the place the other day, so I wasn’t surprised to see a fence going up when I went by yesterday. I was relieved to see it’s a wrought iron fence, which doesn’t detract from the view that much. I was afraid of a six-foot wooden fence blocking both trees. If they have to put a fence there, this isn’t so bad. Still, I’m going to miss the unadulterated view of the trees.

Wrecked cars at Stayton Auto Wreckers in Stayton Oregon

I spotted these cars over the fence at Stayton Auto Wreckers on Jetters Way late last month. It’s sad they’ve been discarded and forgotten, but at least they have each other.

Hoar frost on a chain-link fence near Stayton Oregon

Guest photographer Terry Lindemann caught this cool shot of a bunch of hoar frost on a chain-link fence. I wish I’d thought to look for something like that when I was out shooting, as it makes a great pattern. Thanks, Terry!

The word hope made out of plastic cups in Stayton Oregon

I spotted this interesting bit of artwork along the north end of 3rd Ave. the other day, on a fence surrounding the back part of a daycare center. “Hope” was created out of plastic drinking cups, stuck into the fence. I like it a lot.

Guest photographer Patrick took a picture of something I’d been meaning to investigate, but hadn’t succeeded. His description:

I was driving north on Third the other day and happened to look over at the bus loading area at the grade school. I saw the ribbons on the chain link fence, saw a break in the rain clouds behind them and just had to pull over for a photo. Seeing your photo of St. Boniface with that beautiful sky behind it reminded me this morning that I had sky photos in the can that needed to be looked at.

Nice shot, Patrick. Thanks!

Snow-covered sidewalk with a fence and bushes in Stayton Oregon

Today’s photo is another from the spring snowfall we had last week. This sidewalk runs in front of a neighbor’s house… there was about three inches of snow on the ground at the time. I liked the snow on the tips of the fence boards.

This may or may not be the last snow photo. It depends on my mood tomorrow.

This wrought iron fence surrounds the Holm Building on 2nd Ave. It’s very pretty.

I took this on the corner of Evergreen Ave. and Ida St. the other day. I’m not sure what kind of flower it is… maybe heather? Maybe not? I dunno.

Fence and headstones at Lone Oak Cemetery in Stayton Oregon

I took this photo yesterday evening at Lone Oak Cemetery on the corner of 3rd Ave. and Fern Ridge Rd. I don’t think I’d ever really paid much attention to that fence before.
