On a walk in my neighborhood. Interestingly, very few duplicates.
I won’t be too harsh, but I really didn’t enjoy the coffee or the ambiance of Cafe Eleven. And I’ll just leave it at that.
Here are some pictures though!

Harder Day Coffee sits in a converted gas station on Sandy. It’s been remodeled well, and if you don’t mind the blaring, slightly too loud punk (I don’t mind) then you might enjoy it here. The coffee is mediocre but there’s plenty of space to spread out and work if you need to.

I get emails…
Got in the car for a short trip. Went to plug my phone in for CarPlay. Realized I need a USB-A to USB-C adapter! Or a new car…. 😬🤪
The new PDX is gorgeous. Just astoundingly beautiful.

I like the new camera button on the iPhone but I wish it was a little higher up on the side of the phone. It feels like it was designed for landscape photography, but most of my pictures are portrait.
One thing I’m really enjoying about the new iPhone is how much softer and less harsh it feels in your hand. The edges are less sharp and it just feels better.

Futura Coffee was a nice find in an area of NE Portland I don’t get to often. The interior was pleasant with plenty of space to work. I didn’t love the coffee but it wasn’t terrible. That being said, Mudd Works is just down the street and I would probably pick that over Futura.

Hello there!
Hello from iOS 18…
I found this today and it just about brings me to tears each time I read it. She’s 22 now. ❤️
Did you know that there is a replica of Stonehenge on the Columbia Gorge in Washington? It’s a WWI war memorial.
I was fortunate to get to enjoy the very brief return of Pok Pok to Portland. Had a great evening with my wife and her parents.
This is 50.
I’m not sure what to say about KISS Coffee. It’s definitely quirky. All orders are taken at a window outside, but they have both indoor and outdoor seating. They also close REALLY early and have strange hours. The coffee is fine, but unless you live in the neighborhood, this is probably one to skip.

Red E Cafe is a bit of a retro spot. I didn’t mind it, but it did feel a bit grubby inside. The coffee was decent as was the seating. In a pinch I could work here, but there are better places nearby.
