Merry Christmas to all who celebrate the day! And happy Wednesday to everyone. We aren’t having a white Christmas here, but this photo, taken during a recent snowfall in the hills outside Stayton, by guest photographer Denny Barnes makes it feel like we are. Thanks, Denny!

Here’s another photo from the snowfall in the hills outside Stayton, courtesy of guest photographer Denny Barnes (see also: Return Of The Snowmobile). Such a beautiful winter scene. Thanks, Denny!

Denny also sent one more photo, but I think I’ll save that one for Christmas day.

It kind of snowed a bit the night before last, but other than on some rooftops, it didn’t stick around in Stayton. But the hills outside of town were turned into a beautiful winter wonderland. Guest photographer Denny Barnes reported he had about four inches of the white stuff, and sent along something of a tradition here on Stayton Daily Photo — the snowmobile (I’ve posted other photos of it in the past — here’s one, and here’s another). It’s just darned cute with the snow on it.

Denny also sent two other snow photos, so barring any unforeseen events of the important variety, I will I’ll be posting the day after tomorrow. Come on back around, y’all.

Daffodils trying to grow in snow near Stayton OregonThis is really getting ridiculous. It snowed again yesterday in the hills just outside of town. It is April, right? Because I’m not so sure.

Guest photographer Denny Barnes sent in today’s photos (be sure to click on the one at right to see it larger). His description (written yesterday):

My Daffodils are finally trying to bloom but that white stuff keeps getting in the way. We had rain-snow mix most of the day yesterday and then got up this morning to 1/2 inch of snow on the ground and snowing hard. No TV,
can’t have that! Had to clean the snow off the satellite dish to get it working again. Enough snow already!! I am more than ready for spring!!

Amen to that last part, Denny. Did someone move Oregon to northern Canada when I wasn’t looking? ;)

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.

More snow photos! Sure, the snow’s all melted outside, but it continues to live on in photos. And will post snow photos for as long as I think I can get away with it.

Today’s photo was taken by frequent guest photographer, Jim Mullholand. This lovely blanket of snow was photographed near the close by town of Scio. Thanks, Jim, as always.

The snow which fell over a couple of days ago has pretty much melted (we actually had sun yesterday, which was welcome but strange), but that won’t stop me from posting photos of it. This was the view off of Fern Ridge Rd., looking out into a random field. Highway 22 runs along the back part of the photo, but it’s hidden behind a hill.

Tomorrow I’ll be posting another guest photographer photo of the snow. Come back then. Or stay around until then. Or, if you’re viewing this in the future, then just go there right now. Whatever works.

I think today’s photo from frequent guest photographer Jim Mullholand sums up spring so far. No words are needed, really. Just this.

It is spring now, right? Because I’m pretty sure Mother Nature didn’t get that memo, at least not around here. It snowed or snow/rained pretty much all day yesterday, and last night it flat out snowed. When I went out last night to take this photo, there was about 2.5 inches on the ground.

I’ve heard other places around the country have been having unseasonably warm weather, but not here. No, here it’s been unseasonably white. Someday… someday our spring will come.
