We recently spent 48 hours in Portland, Oregon. Th We recently spent 48 hours in Portland, Oregon. The purpose of our trip was to see Bruce Springsteen’s Land of Hope and Dreams American tour. 

The concert delivered good energy and a message of hope. Portland delivered sunshine, hospitality, good food, music and the @portlandsaturdaymarket 

Of course, free speech opportunities are welcome in this rose city. I snapped a video of a gentleman gliding by Tom McCall Waterfront Park on his e-bike.

The Oregon coast hits different than California’s The Oregon coast hits different than California’s coastline. I say this as a 4th generation Northern Californian, now living (5+ years) in the Willamette Valley. I also attended University of Oregon in the 1980’s. 

Florence, Oregon beaches still look the same to me. They always look good drenched in sunshine. 

Have you discovered Oregon’s public beaches? They truly are the people’s coast.
