    We decided last minute, to see the "Mid Summer's night dream" at this theatre. You can get drinks before or during intermission. They can provide you a plastic cup to take into the theatre. The performance was wonderful. We had a great time. It was reasonable priced, and we had great seats.

    We have just come back from a family weekend away for my 60 th birthday in this fantastic property. It is ideal for a family group get together. It’s really spacious and so well stocked with cutlery and crockery etc. It is also in a perfect location to explore portpatrick. We would highly recommend this accommodation.

    Picture perfect. If you visit Multnomah falls, take a bit of time to go up to the bridge, if you are physically able. The mist from the upper falls is very refreshing.

    I have been searching on things to do in Portland and this plaza made it on my list. I like to walk along the waterfront. Just make sure you are not walking by yourself when it gets dark.

    Three of us, friends from High School 40+ years, gathered for a Saturday Holiday Tea. The menu included normal tea sandwiches, scones, and deserts. One of us is gluten free and her needs were met. So much fun!

    The park itself was fairly nice. Some statues and large trees. Also a homeless tent community. One guy sleeping in a sleeping bag looked worse for wear.

    The terra cotta detailing was added to a neighborhood built by a series of architects that thought the detailing would be an artistic breakthrough. When your in the district it takes a little while to realize you are there. Definitely park the car and walk about lots of shops and restaurants and a constant eyeful of the most beautiful terra cotta work.

    Most of the houses in the area have a wonderful paint job. This lovely home is in the Queen Anne style and is called the Nathan Loeb. No idea who he was, but the house was found important for domestic facts that occurred in 1893. It was listed as historically important in 1978. It is privately owned and I can not find anywhere where it is open for tours. Worth a look, parking is terrible, pick some historic houses in the area and see them all.

    Unfortunately it was not open on a Monday in early May. The grounds are beautiful as is the neighborhood. We walked the area for awhile and enjoyed the views and scenery.

    Built in 1891 by architects Whidden & Lewis in the Colonial Revival style in the Alphabet Historic District. Lovely, privately owned and really sad is that it apparently has been divided into 4 units. Deemed significant in 1980. Nice walk, Nice neighborhood. There are 128 historically relevant building still standing in Portland and you can find info on them at our historic places, Portland Oregon.

    This is Sauvie Island history. Call ahead to make sure they're open. Spend less than an hour inside. Outdoors is great spot for a picnic, especially if you've just u-picked fruit or vegetables at one of the nearby farms.
