This site is about Portland. Old and new. My favorite two things for my extra time and money are eating and drinking, followed by walking around Portland, watching movies/plays/comedy/music, and reading. The topics on this site pretty much mirror these obsessions.

Visiting Portland, Oregon? Check out my Portland visitor page just for you.

Not surprisingly, I took a bit of a break for the last three years.

If I can relatively easily reach a place from Pioneer Courthouse Square using my feet, a bicycle, or public transit, I declare it to be central Portland!

Have fun!
