Well & Good coffee shop now open in Bonny Slope

well and good counter

A welcoming spot for coffee, breakfast, and lunch is now open at the corner of Thompson and South Road. After several years running Well & Good in Tigard, Brandon Mosser decided the time was right to expand. He and his crew have transformed the space that previously held Gallagher Designs and Aurora Coffee with a clean modern vibe and plenty of areas to sit and gather with friends.

Opinion: Re-Imagining the Hillsboro Airport

According to a Feb. 14, 2021, Oregonian article, “The Port of Portland is considering a major overhaul…the restructuring is part of a sweeping philosophical shift away from facilitating trade for powerful business interests to a ‘shared prosperity initiative’ intended to spread the wealth to people of color, the poor and the marginalized. In some cases, that could mean selling off profitable operations in order to pursue these new, broader aims, which are taking root amid a resurgent civil rights movement.”

College this Fall? It’s not too late to apply for Portland Community College

As an academic and career advisor, I have been working with students that are preparing for college this fall. With the anticipation that many colleges and universities will be providing online-only classes for the fall 2020 term and perhaps into winter/spring 2021, some of my students are now seeking alternatives to paying higher tuition.

Grocery shopping in the virus era

COVID-19 has pushed us to find our new normal. Unfortunately, that means our local grocery stores must accommodate our dramatically changing circumstances as well. Health and safety of shoppers is most important to our grocery stores…
