I explored with my friend Amelia Schley a place I had never visited before: Kelly Point Park, the most northwest point in the city of Portland, Oregon. There were many dogs!

Angeleno power-player Ellie Pritts and I wandered in April 2017 around a couple of blocks in North Portland's Mississippi District, where there are fun little shops, bars, and coffee shops.
