Rural residents were upset when Oregon released a statewide map estimating property risk from wildfires.
Until then, the impacts of climate change were abstract to many people, one senator said. “This is a very big chicken coming home to roost.”

Ok, I am officially taking a solo vacation to Portland, OR! My current intention for the trip is to have the "queerest possible experience" in the city.
What would folks suggest that I do? Any particular LGBTQ+ coffee shops, bars, and restaurants I should check out? Book stores? Whatever else?
(Boosts welcome/appreciated)

Shore Acres State Park. Just north of Cape Arago in Oregon.
The coastline is dramatic as always, but the sandstone here deserves special mention. Most of it looks otherworldly.

Oregon sweet cherry growers produced a beautiful crop but are calling this year a disaster.
Due to the migrant labor shortage and problems with packing plants, their cherries may not reach the market.

We are going to be traveling to #Portland#Oregon at the end of the month. Do you have any recommendations for any of the following?
1) A good #vegan or #vegetarian place? (Esp. South Asian and East Asian)
2) A good, cozy #coffee shop / cafe?
3 Good #tea shops?
4) A good #bakery ?
and a bonus question -
4) Any activity that might be good for a very curious nine-month old?
We really like the city and are looking forward to our trip!

This new camera continues to be the best investment ever!
Spotted these Barn Swallow chicks in Seal Rock.
Also, I think I'm a birder now?

I'm taking the lessons I learned while hiking the first 200 miles of the Oregon Coast Trail and happily applying them to the next 200. For example: 3 days at Cape Perpetua instead of just trekking up and around it! And 2 at Silver Falls because, I mean, waterfalls! (Photos from there coming soon...)
The sidequests can be just as important -- if not MORE important -- than the planned journey.
