Okay, I just love this destination for all things storage for offices, closets and kitchen. It's part of an outdoor mall 10 minutes south of our home called Bridgeport Village. There's also an Apple Store, AT&T, DSW Shoes and Mario's fine clothing.

One of my favorite small business stores in Multnomah Village. Annie Blooms Book Store is down the street, and Peggy Tuesday's is next door. Fun walk! It's just 10 minutes from our home.

Biggest and best bookstore ever - new, used and historic. 6 floors I think? Across from. Starbucks and their own great espresso. You can easily spend a day.

About 5-10 minutes from our home in SW Portland, this is a very old, hippy chic outside shopping village. It has a couple great espresso stores including Starbucks, Thinker Toys for kids, Annie Bloom Books, Switch 👞 Shoes and Clothing, and my favorite Indigo Traders with Moroccan and Turkish imports.

Food Scene

Amazing Asian fusion food - tape sized - and great bar with fresh fruits and infusions. On 10th floor of The Nines Hotel and valet parking. Nice outdoor patio on a sunny day or evening. Kind of a hot spot.

If you want to stay closer to home, the Thirsty Lion is 5 minutes drive from the house. Just drive to the bottom of Locust, turn left then turn right towards the mall. The food is pubbish and simple. They have good drinks and great pasta specials.

Just 10 minutes south from the house - by jumping on I5 South and turning toward Bridgeport Village outdoor mall. Great seafood and big selection. There is one downtown as well, but if you want to avoid the downtown - this is really a nice choice.

Best 🍣 sushi, sashimi and teriyaki in Portland, without outdoor seating. There is also a downtown location but it doesn't have the charm of Bridgeport Village just 10 minutes south from our home. It's just a straight shot south down I5.

If you don't have time to drive to Central Coast, take Hwy 26 out to North Coast. Cannon Beach is south of Seaside and far more clean and beautiful! Great restaurants and lots of salt water taffy!

We are 10 minutes from Willamette Valley wine country! Just get on 99W/SW Pacific Highway and drive southwest. 100s of great wineries - from Domaine Serene and Archery Summit, to Erath and Rex Hill. I strongly advice that you go to Google and download a Yamhill, Carlton and Willamette Valley winery map. There are almost 200 to visit!
