This is going to be a variation of installments. 1)OK- For all of those people with dogs here is a business for you; doggy daycare! This concept is HOT in Portland. Big dogs, little dogs, fat and skinny dogs get to go to play with there mates on a daily basis. Drop them off in the morning and they get play time, walk time and food. Ready to go home and be your best-friend for the rest of the evening. 2) Portland has beautiful sunsets. Often a few whispy clouds will fill the sky and the sun creates beautiful mosaics with them. 3) Flowers are abundant and everywhere. This is a feature I want to add to my house soon. This restaurant took a 2" wide piece of metal about 6' in length and placed shot glasses with flowers all along the wall. One of the servers said that they do not have to change the flowers all at once. When one looks wilty or dead they just replace it or remove it until next time. 4) Flower baskets are hanging everywhere (if you have ever been to Victoria, B.C. you know what I mean). Some of the ones around the pearl are so huge I often think they are going to fall on someone. OUCH! 5) The old water towers are on many of the restored industrial buildings. There are several lofts that use the water tower as part of their roof top balconey. As you walk through the neighborhood you must look up, see stuff that most don't notice.
