I am here. Wetter than all heck. Hanging out in bed as I got rear-ended today on the way to work. What would I do solo in Portland?

1) Powells books. They have books on anything you can imagine. Lots of smelly hipsters as well.
2) Great beer. Just walk down most streets and you can find a brew pub.
3) Spend money? No sales tax.
4) Not really my deal but word is, Portland has more strip clubs per capita than anywhere else. There is even a vegan strip club. Not sure if the women are skinny / healthy or what. Just sayin.
5) Live music. Portland has great blues and Jazz. Jimmie Macs is usually a good bet. Lots of other spots as well.
6) Dinner? I like Ginos. It is Italian and in Sellwood. Loud. Informal. Great food. Supposed to be where the chef's eat on their night off.
7) Pinot Noir? We grow lots. Not my favorite varietal but lots of folks dig it.

Good luck. Just a few thoughts.
