Ok, why am I not surprised this video comes from Portland? Let me take this opportunity to request from the Portlanders and Oregonians, any suggestions as to what/where to visit when in Portland. I'll be going there next month for five days and would like to see much of the city and surrounding countryside (and get in a hike or two). Any advice would be appreciated (I already know about the Beer Festival).
Here is a small sampling of City Repair / Village Building Convergence sites from my web site. (I sometimes have been an unofficial photographer for VBC... and it's people like City Repair / VBC who make Portland the kind of place people like me keep moving too.)
A new intersection repair this year in Beaumont-Wilshire neighborhood:
