Recently in Willamette Week
December 31st 1969Washington State | The Canada of Oregon has it all—a Stonehenge replica, a longboarder's concrete wet dream and dark, damp underground lava caves. Vive les rocks.
December 31st 1969Oregon's Outer Edges | Crater Lake. Hell's Canyon. Wallowa and Steens mountain ranges. Hell, yeah.
December 31st 1969Central Oregon/High Desert | No rain, plenty of snow, obsidian flows and great local beer. The folks from the real eastside know how to unbend outside.
December 31st 1969Great Cascades/Columbia Gorge | With plenty of room to roam—and hot springs for your weary feet—it's the place to ramble and relax for the weekend.
December 31st 1969Willamette Valley | Monks, tracks, tubing and wine make the fertile strip a virile place to play.
December 31st 1969Stumptown | Tons of public parks, an extinct volcano and nude beach volleyball to keep you jolly. Get out and collect those merit badges, without leaving the city.
December 31st 1969The Coast | The beaches are public.
You own them. Go play—hike in the old-growth forests.
December 31st 1969Doggin' It | What happens when a Portland running club jogs with pooches from the pound?
Thank you for this photo. Here is another great one that shows a large contingency of Duck fans that my friend in Iraq sent me, he’s holding the flag. Go Ducks!

From the “I wish I’d thought of it” department, somebody just emailed me the perfect headline for this story:

Here is a picture I took while at Camp Buehring Kuwait. http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs092.snc3/15937_185166273280_652238280_2738720_6210711_n.jpg
