Last Thursday On Alberta: BillyGoat Vintage Anniversary Celebration + Things Out Of Stuff

August 25, 2010 — PDXPIPELINE

Things Out Of Stuff

Portland’s Last Thursday on Alberta celebration is once again here. Friend of the Pipeline, Brian Connolly, will have his “Things Out Of Stuff” at BillyGoat Vintage on NE 24th. It is also their one year anniversary celebration, so sure to be a good place to check out.

I took this picture a few months ago at Crema Cafe in SE Portland. The heads & haands are salt & pepper shakers. Not quite sure what the legs are for (take shots?), but you can probably figure it out on his site here. You might want to get there early as Brian’s great items should go quickly.

“Stumptown Staycation” @ Portland Saturday Market + Win $25 Gift Certificate

August 25, 2010 — PDXPIPELINE

We have another $25 Gift Card to give away for Portland Saturday Market! To Win: comment below on this post on why you like the market or want to buy, etc. Will draw & email winner on Friday, August 27 @ three.

Reminder: We give out 100s of $$$ in free tickets every month to our Portland Facebook Group for many of the top events & venues in PDX. Join it if you like free stuff. Not on Facebook? Join our email list and win there.

From our partners Portland Saturday Market:

Stumptown Staycation

It has become increasingly popular across our great United States for the theme “Staycation” to ring out loudly. What better way to experience Portland then purposely vacationing as a tourist. We went down to Portland Saturday Market for inspiration and compiled 5 easy steps to help you become a tourist in your own hometown.

What’s the best thing about being a hometown tourist? It’s so easy to do.  Get away without going away! Planning to get away can be a challenge these days, with both time and money at a premium for many would-be travelers. Fortunately, there is a way to satisfy wanderlust that is easy on both.  Discover what others come to see in your hometown. Explore the affordable, eclectic and unsurpassed mix of dining, shopping, history, art and nature that is Portland – on your own or with your family.

Ask someone about the visitor attractions in their hometown and they might well tell you that they have never visited that place. It seems many of us take the place we grew up in for granted. Why the rush to visit somewhere else? We have the rest of our lives to call in and pay a visit. In a worldwide global recession and with our carbon footprints becoming ever more noticeable, it makes sense to check out what your local environs have to offer.
