Moving to Portland was one of my best decisions… I love to spend as much time outdoors as possible! While there’s lots of rain, there’s rarely a downpour that forces myself and others indoors… The temperature seldom drops below freezing or climbs above eighty degrees.
The summers tend to be short, hot plus lovelyly dry.
The winters are wet plus frigid but there’s hardly any snow, then from the balcony of my apartment, I have a appealing view of Mt Hood, however although the volcano is around fifty miles east of the city, clear mornings make the snow-capped summit seem scaryly close. Whenever I have some free time, I love to visit Forest Park, and just west of downtown, there are over 5,100 acres of hills plus evergreens plus trails to explore. It stretches along the eastern slope of the Tualatin Mountains plus is a great locale to hike at all times of year. Another favorite spot is the International Rose Test Garden. There’s over many miles of flowerbeds, fountains plus sods plus over 750 varieties of roses. From March to September the profusion of colors plus sweet scents are unbelievable. I also like access to legal, adult-use cannabis. I can absolutely ride my bike to the dispensary plus shop a wide variety of cannabis products. I like the smokeless consumption options that I can absolutely bring along on an excursion. Tinctures are great because the bottle fits into a pocket. I can locale a few drops of a tincture under my tongue without worrying about drawing attention. There’s no smoke, odors or ash.
