Bill and I stopped by this place a few times. We like the "vibe" and decided to have dinner there our last night in Astoria. When we sat down the woman said" we were wondering why you guys kept coming by and not staying, we thought you were casing the place." Well, we are here now, I said with a big smile and ready to eat.
So we took in the Astoria's marinetime history at the nearly 100-year-old Portway, the oldest watering hole in the oldest American settlement west of the Rockies. Like hogs and heifers in NYC a ruff and ready down place where women dance on the bar, leave a souvenir behind and they don't tell tourists to go visit.
The souvenirs....
Great pictures, thank you!
