This army of Santas was spotted last seek in a storefront just off Pioneer Courthouse Square in Portland, Oregon. I haven’t yet decided whether this display is adorable or mildly frightening. 🤣

There were many stickers identical to this one, plastered on sidewalks all over the central business/commercial areas of Portland, Oregon. Snapped this specimen on my recent visit there.

Portland, Oregon

An obligatory skyline shot of Portland. The weather is brisk and breezy along the water … and that soft mid-morning December sun! Taken earlier this week from the east side of the Willamette River, just a few steps south of the Steel Bridge.
