Portland Blog - This Week in Portland, July 4 - 11, 2009

Happy Independence Day, Portland! It looks to be another scorcher out there today, they say it will get up to 93 degrees. It got so hot yesterday, I finally caved in and put the window air conditioner back in, so at least *part* of my house can stay cool. I found all my dogs piled up on the rug in front of the air conditioner shortly after I turned it on. :-) If you're looking for the best places to stay cool in Portland, here are a few suggestions...

How to pick a martial arts school

A very common question I get from parents is “Is this is the best martial art for my child?”. As much as I would love to say yes and get another student at my school, I never do. I almost always answer with two questions. The first is “Do they have fun doing it?”, and the second is “Do you think what we teach is valuable?”.

One of the most important things about a martial art (or any activity) is that you enjoy it. If you absolutely hated it and never had fun, why would you do it? I only train… Continue

It was the RED E's launch party to celebrate their newly opened cafe on the very up and coming Killingsworth Street. The RED E is right next door to another recently opened and very cool business,… Continue

Portland Blog: This Week in Portland June 20-27

It's hard to believe but today is the last official day of spring! Seems as though she took forever to get here and leaves with barely a warning and now summer is slinking in ever so quietly....

June 21st begins the official Portland summer which will be, like it always has been, amazing. Everyone says Portland summers have no equal and I must agree. Our monthly Portland photo contest is "Show us in images what embodies the Portland summer to you". As they say, a picture is worth a milli… Continue

Moving to Portland ASAP

I'm newly single after 25 years and since my kids are in college,I'm ready to leave California (am a native New Yorker), with my dog and start fresh in Portland. I plan to buy a small home to call my own, but want to get the neighborhood right.I'm a massage therapist, so want to work out of my home, as well as with an established spa. Sellwood sounds fun, but I'm very open. Any suggestions?
