TWAK Invades Portland, Oregon

I used to visit Portland about every 6 months when I was growing up, kind of a second home. I wasn't able to visit when I was serving, so this is my first trip since getting out.

taking light rail into downtown (there were no parking lots for my HUGE SUV )





"vibrant" "people" "urban"

"diversity"












the sprinkler got me

mmm beaver




see yah latah

I agree with you Sioux612...I really like how that tower sits over Pioneer Courthouse Square. I hope his new tower (Park Avenue West) will be at least its equal.
