It&#8217;s an open group with many contributors, but it&#8217;s primarily curated by Kevin Michael-Moore, who has amassed an amazing trove of memorabilia of bygone businesses, attractions and more spanning our quirky city&#8217;s entire history.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you happened to read my previous post, you know that I&#8217;m a huge fan of skateboarding, and a skater myself. So, I&#8217;m pretty hyped that the Dew Tour is in Portland today through the weekend, and it&#8217;s bigger than ever. While the entire event, in its seventh year coming to Portland,  is bigger than [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OK. I&#8217;m not really that good at it, and at my age falls hurt a good bit more than they used to, but I still skateboard — a lot. That&#8217;s one of the things that I really love about Portland — Portland embraces skateboarding completely. Not only do we have a wide variety of indoor [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a vinyl lover and a DJ at a Portland-based internet radio station (House of Sound), I often come across weird gems and forgotten blasts from the past. A number of our DJs, myself included, like to not only straight-up play records, but experiment with sound &#8212; often doing things like mixing spoken word sources [...]]]></description>

April is one of our rainiest months, but even now we get our share of sunshine. Portland actually has what&#8217;s referred to as a Mediterranean climate.

		<description><![CDATA[The hipsters at XLR8R — an online magazine &#8220;Accelerating Music and Culture&#8221; — sure seem to love Portland. They&#8217;ve done individual profiles of Portland artists and musicians in the past, and now they&#8217;ve added Portland to the short list of cities they&#8217;ve produced guides for.
