Scheduled arrivals and departures

I love this kind of information board in train stations. Simple, effective, low-maintenance. The retro feel is a bonus. This one is at Portland Union Station.

Death takes flight over NE Alberta Street in Portland, Oregon

So I look up on a photowalk on NE Alberta St. in Portland last weekend to find myself pleasantly surprised by a skeleton attempting to fly … or so it seems, anyway!

That other Bowery

You’d be forgiven if you walked into this place and thought you’d been transported to New York. But you are really in a bagel shop on the edge of the Pearl District, not far from Portland Union Station.

Saturday morning Winter Portland Farmers Market

Just a couple of Saturdays left in the winter market in the green space behind the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland. Lots of tasty foods prepared on the spot and fresh produce to bring home.
