Nike announced yesterday that they would be closing their flagship store NikeTown downtown and moving to an alternative location. I remember when Niketown opened 16 yrs ago. Downtown Portland was a radically different place. Greyhound still had their depot where the new Hilton is now. I remember coming downtown to see all the sports stars visit and leave their signature or memorabilia. I remember the store's hours were based on different atheletes jersey numbers. I think it opened @ 10:23am as an homage to Michael Jordan. I think Bo Jackson was also represented there, but he has pretty much disappeared from the limelight.
Good luck in the new locale (probably the Pearl with Adidas and Puma.)

My wife and I headed out to the Dog Park, which is also known as the Portland State Farmers Market. We went looking for things my wife could eat, and foods I couldn't live without. But the place was packed.
One of the Great Mysteries of Life remains the question of why people feel the need to take their dogs to a farmers market. I'm baffled. It's not like dogs like crowded places. It's not like dogs couldn't live without their "masters" for the hour it takes someone to do a bit of shopping. It's not like non-pet owners LOVE stumbling over dog leashes or having their crotches sniffed by someone's animal.
I swear! some people need to get a life.
OK. I'm through ranting. For a moment. Anyways, these bikes were parked near the market and they needed their photo taken.

I asked permission to take photos in almost all cases, and in all photos where I was aware of a child in the photo, I asked permission to take the photo and post here.
I did not ask permission for many group photos, where poses were being done for
photos, assuming that taking those photos was implied okay. If you have any questions please message me through my Flickr page. Thank you!
Some times I include photos of both front and back because often times cosplayers have created something elaborate on the back side - and they never get to see what it looks like!
