portland days: spray cans, coffee, and chaos

just rolled into town after a night of sketching walls

- cheap spray cans
- worn-out sketchbook
- busted bike
- tip: hit up the 24‑hour diner for free water

i just checked and it's...there right now, hope you feel that kind of thing. the air smells like rain‑soaked neon and the streetlights flicker like old film reels.

someone told me that the old train depot is the best spot for sunrise tags, and i heard that the coffee shop on 5th still serves the strongest brew in the city.

if you get restless, neighboring towns are a quick hop away.

*the alley behind the laundromat is where the real stories happen

the old brick wall near the river always has fresh paint

the neon sign* on oak street flickers at midnight
