Bus Art
Spotted on the back of a private bus on Alberta Street.
Hydrangea
It seemed a bit odd to me to find an hydrangea plant still in bloom while the majority of plants, trees, etc in the area have transitioned to their Fall state.
Fall Images.
During my time in Portland I was able to capture the transition to Fall.

Fall has Arrived

Sabin School in NE Portland
Local public school that has a playground. During the summer months, while school is out, it is a nice place to play.

Garden Figures
Spotted these figures and scenes n a flower garden.
Community Cycling Center
On Alberta Street in Portland, the Community Cycling Center refurbishes bicycles and sells them and offers customers the use of tolls and shop to also do repairs on their bikes. An interesting business model with an equally interesting mural on the West side of the building.
Two VW’S
Spotted in NE Portland, two old VW’s: Superized dune buggy VW and VW’s “Thing”. This is the only ‘Thing’ I have seen in years. I’m not sure what market VW was shooting for with the Thing.
Poster and Mural: Of Different Times
Poster on telephone pole on Alberta Street, NE Portland. Malcolm X mural on side of building on same street.
Disabled & New
Spotted this van in a driveway in the Sabin area of Portland. I think this van now has become disabled itself instead of serving the disabled.
A few houses down the same street this Mini was parked in the driveway.
Flowers from NE Portland
Thought I would take a break from posting the trip photos and post some from my few days in Portland this past week.
