I thought this was a rather nice little write up on CNN with America's Favorite Cities" ....
had to laugh though, I think whoever wrote it was rather on the hungry side. Portland has so much to offer, and I think they really missed some key spots, but boy, they sure did get a good variaty on some food/coffee. lol PORTLAND, Oregon (CNN) -- In the winter, the residents of this Pacific Northwest city hunker down for the gray rain that drills the city sidewalks for days on end. Locals drink loads of strong coffee, read books and take up knitting with zeal reserved in other parts of the nation for church going or clubbing. But when the sun comes out to stay -- locals say it comes around the Fourth of July and stays till around Halloween -- Portland blossoms and easily assumes its sweet-scented moniker, the City of Roses. Both sunny and rainy Portland are well worth checking out. Probably the best asset this city has to offer travelers -- no matter how gloomy the forecast -- is its extensive and reliable transit system. Last edited by Waterlily; 08-15-2007 at 06:45 PM.
