Without fanfare, Portland’s Holly Farm skate spot opened for business. Monkey business is what went down there this morning. We go there in the rain this morning, but as it let off we were able to push the water around with some rags and it air dried pretty fast. That’s City Comissioner Sam Adam’s aide Tom Miller with a frontside grind over the love seat. Tom was one of the first people on hand to check out the new spot, and why not, he’s a huge part of the reason Portland has a system of skateparks on the books instead of just one or two parks. Thank Skaters for Portland Skateparks and a few progressive individuals in city hall. Where is Holly Farm park? 10819 SW Capitol Hwy, Portland Oregon. How is Holly Farm? Small, funky and fun. These skate spots are a good bang for your buck. Here’s another angle. Be nice to the neighbors and pick up some trash please, even if it isn’t yours. It’s a great age to be a skateboarder in Portland.

Hah, my bad, must’ve missed that one.

Easy to stop by on your way to Newberg or points south on I-5 or Tigard in a few months. Less than 5 minutes off the highway.
