In the center of downtown Portland, a Nordstrom (with few customers) and a sign on the door saying “guns not allowed on premises”. I didn’t realize Oregon was open-carry, and fortunately I didn’t see any open-carry (unlike you do in Arizona).
I looked up the law, and businesses are (thankfully) allowed to prohibit open-carry on their premises in Oregon. I don’t want to be shopping and have someone with a holstered gun standing near me sorting through the same socks, belts, or underwear…..

Portland's Nekkid Bike Ride was Saturday night. Plenty of people were fully or partially dressed, but there were definitely some that went full monty. (I say ouch to that, but hey, to each their own). I snapped this from the hip and phew, no bits are on display!
I know that it's a worldwide event, but this is SUCH a Portland thing to do!

Foundation stone 16 Nov 1876, architect Fenton W Hill, opened 25 Sep 1877 as Freemason Lodge, sold to Baptists 1889.
“On Tuesday night last the Masonic Hall in Percy street was for the first time thrown open to the public, and fifty couples, indulged in what has been not inaptly termed the poetry of motion to the music of a good orchestra. Miss Porter presided at the piano, a new and splendid instrument . . . Mr. Perry, from Belfast, played the cornet and Mr. T. Porter, the violin, The hall on the first opening was not so crowded as anticipated, but certainly all who did attend appeared to enjoy themselves, and dancing was kept up with commendable spirit from 9 p.m. till an early hour next morning.” [Portland Guardian 28 Sep 1877]
“Early in the year 1S55 the first seed of the Portland Baptist Church was sown. . . a union occurred between members of two sections of the Christian Church, namely, Baptist and Independents (or Congregationalist). . . The first meeting was held in a cottage situated in Tyers street, nearly opposite the Victoria Boarding House. . . After a short time the Congregational portion conceived the idea of purchasing a piece of land and erecting a building suitable to worship in, exclusively for their denomination. This was soon accomplished, the building now known as the Temperance Hall being the result of their efforts. . . it was deemed advisable to purchase a piece of land and erect a building, The land was soon purchased-the site of the present church in Henty street-from Mr. L. Clarke, for the sum of £75. . . the erection of a church which consisted of one half of the present building. The foundation stone was laid in the year 1860 by the late respected Colonel Learmonth. . . opportunity presenting itself of being able to purchase the Masonic Hall for the moderate sum of £800, it was soon availed of and the purchase completed. Alterations and improvements to be effected will bring the cost up to £1000. The old church has been disposed of to the Oddfellows' Friendly Society.” [Portland Guardian 3 Feb 1890]
