The Pearl

On Sunday Jeff suggested we go on a walk. I love going on walks! He suggested we go to the pearl, a park, or hipster portland. I don't know where he thought hipster Portland is.. it's everywhere, but I think he meant somewhere on the east side. I chose The Pearl! I live so close and rarely go over there. It was so nice to walk around outside, it's been really rainy lately so we had to take advantage of clear skies.

I did a double take when I walked past this. I didn't know what it is but I was interested. Looked it up and it was exactly what I was hoping.. Portland Closet Company specializes in custom organization and storage solutions. I'll keep that in mind for later in life..

Tanner Springs Park

 We started our walk with coffee, hot cocoa, and a cinnamon roll at Sisters Coffee Co. 

Cool display at the Keen store

Want to go here! Salt Grotto

They usually have a Groupon Now deal and you can go for free on your birthday! This is where the walk turned into making a list of places I want to try sometime.

Had to finally try Kettleman Bagel Company before they are taken over by Noah's.
