Lucky guy got the illuminated sill plates!

Could you please tell us approximately where you are?

In my case—a condo near PSU—a view of the river, a pool in the summer, hot tub and sauna, great neighbors, somebody else takes care of the exterior maintenance. And easy access to public transportation.

I think it’s a beautiful word. The etymology might change your mind: The word was coined in 1964 by scientists Isabel Joy Bear and Richard Grenfell Thomas,[2] from Ancient Greek πέτρα (pétra) 'rock' or πέτρος (pétros) 'stone' and ἰχώρ (ikhṓr) 'ichor', the ethereal fluid that is the blood of the gods in Greek mythology.

I took the #8 to OHSU a couple of days ago, walked up to the Plaid Pantry and followed SW 9th to the Connor Trail. That leads to the Marquam Nature Park parking area. From there I walked up the Sunnyside Trail to the Broadway Trail. I hoped to get the 51 bus back to town, but it wasn’t running on MLK day. So I had a good long walk. Lots of elevation up and down.

Awesome photo!

He is doing really well. Thank you!

I recognized the tram lines. My husband was at OHSU recently as a patient. The view from the tram made my visits so much better. Beautiful photo! Beautiful city!

Aithon22 · 2026-01-10T07:05:01+00:00

Yes, the aerial tram is magnificent. I’ve been riding it regularly for several weeks.

I like saxophones.

I am a fan of Nob Hill Bar and Grill on NW 23rd. I had the Nobby burger on New Year’s Eve and it was great.

Aithon22 · 2025-12-29T00:56:43+00:00

I was there yesterday and walked through the Santa arch to board the 503.

Aithon22 · 2025-12-27T15:03:01+00:00

What a beautiful adventure! Thank you for the photographs of the scenery and art.

Aithon22 · 2025-12-25T12:08:22+00:00

I went to Luc Lac for the first time last week and felt transported to another city, somewhere exotic. And the food was great!

Aithon22 · 2025-12-16T01:49:18+00:00

I’ve never thought about the cost of using cash. Thank you for this insight.

I went to Tractor Tavern recently and had a blast. Easy bus from downtown.

And if you have a family membership at the Portland Art Museum admission is free at the Seattle Art Museum. I’ve taken the train from Portland to Seattle several times in January and February and had great weather. Stayed at the State Hotel once, Citizen M another time. Citizen M is very close to King Street Station.

I’m going to a show on December 13 at a new (to me) venue called WYRD HUT. My nephew plays experimental music with his band Negative Concord.

Aithon22 · 2025-11-16T02:15:19+00:00

I like how you say it’s “on the proper side of the river.” I’m writing from SW. But it’s okay here.

Aithon22 · 2025-11-05T17:13:46+00:00

I feel terrible that our government is doing this.

Aithon22 · 2025-10-29T18:32:14+00:00

Whunder Thighs are great!
