Portland, Oregon - Portland Saturday Market

Portland Saturday Market was a lot of fun.  According to their website, "the market is the largest continually operating outdoor arts and crafts market in the nation."  It's been around since 1974!

It was pretty awesome.  There were booths of all sorts of handmade goodies.  Jewelry, planters, toys, clothes, bags, and tons of food!  I came home with a new skirt.  :)

They even have musicians playing on stage.

It was really cool to think that this happens all the time. Growing up, we only had the summer arts festival once a year, not something even bigger every Saturday!

I love that just about anything goes up in the Pacific Northwest.  Want to tote around your kitten?  Sure!
