The Satsop Silo caught my eye many years ago, but once I moved to the Satsop Valley I knew I had to find out as much as I could about this unique structure that sat close to the old highway. I began taking photos of it in the different seasons, in all types of weather and trying to capture it's beauty in the ever changing light and skies. I'm drawn to it, it talks to me, it needed to be documented
. With my photos the Satsop Silo spoke to others as well. Then I was connected with the family whose father and uncle built the Silo and the other structures that once stood there......why was this structure left? The story began to come together.....over coffee around the dining table of another Satsop historian I was able to meet with the ladies who grew up in, around and with the Satsop Silo. We laughed, they told their stories, we shared photographs and we became friends.....that's what the Satsop Silo does. I do not call myself a photographer, I take pictures, capture moments and hopefully document the time and my surroundings. I will continue to take photos of this structure for as long as I can and I hope those who follow this page and the photos will continue to tell me the stories, the joy the photos bring to them and share the Satsop Silo with others.
