This was my third visit to Scott and Tamara's lovely unit above her pottery studio. It is a thoughtfully planned and pleasingly efficient space with a generously stocked kitchen; it features views out over the neighborhood in all directions and gets up close and personal with several magnificent trees. It is a few minutes away from Arbor Lodge Park where toddlers, teenagers, and seniors all mix happily together and the dogs hold meet-and-greets. Transportation downtown on the yellow line is available a few blocks to the east, and buses run frequently on nearby Rosa Parks Avenue. Top quality groceries can be bought at New Seasons Market and at Green Zebra, while excellent local restaurants and coffee shops include Sushi One, Thai Ginger, Arbor Coffee, and Sexy Coffee. Arbor Lodge neighborhood is full of interesting homes occupied by friendly people who garden like mad and write welcoming messages in chalk on the sidewalks. Portland as a whole is a city with a heart and a conscience, which has made it hard to deal with the homeless population in other parts of the city. In addition, the covid pandemic shutdowns curtailed my usual enjoyment of bookstores, museums, and restaurants, but everything was blooming in glorious spring weather and I celebrated Easter with the cherry trees in blossom on the river embankment.
