McMenamins is an Oregon restaurant institution, with locations throughout the state. This particular restaurant is one of my favorites. Just minutes outside of the city nestled along side a country road. The inside is dark and cozy, and the outside embraces nature's natural beauty, with the advantage of heaters under a tent.

Salt and Straw has some standard flavors, and not so standard, which change regularly, so you never know what they'll be offering.

This is a gorgeous upscale property, yet the Oregon casual dress is welcome. One must buy a membership to make a reservation, but the basic membership is $25, and I believe that goes towards the purchase of a bottle of wine or a meal. Some nights, a member guest can arrive before 4:30, grab a glass of wine and settle into a picturesque spot for reflection or a good convo with a friend.

An established restaurant in their new location. Just miles down the road with indoor and outdoor seating. A great summer hangout!

Outside Of The City

I finally went here and it was as wonderful as it was inviting as I had cycled by it so many times. One of the things I love about where I live is that we can go from urban to rural in about 10 minutes. This is a must go to place. Go in the morning at 8, and sip on an espresso as the sun begins to roll high up over the fields, or go before they close at 8, in time to savor a glass of wine, and linger over the wide expanse of fields. You might even meet a chicken or two.

YUM! This is a butcher shop, also known for its sandwiches. Take a look at their website to get an idea of what's in "store." :)

Not far from our place are walking and bike trails. And not far from this park, Rock Creek Corner down the street for some good food and outdoor seating. Nearby is shopping. So a peaceful walk and efficiency with errands are all possible within close proximity of each other!
