Portland 5 Things to Do This Weekend

1. What's more Oregon than craft beer? Well, maybe rain. But that's beside the point. It started Wednesday - continues through Sunday - it's the 29th annual Oregon Brewers Festival. There's something for everyone - even the kids. Go here for more information, everything you need to know.

2. It's slogan is big fair fun. It's website is www.bigfairfun.com. It's the Washington County Fair and it is this weekend. Music. Food. Competitions. A draft horse show. Livestock auction. Bring the family. The kids. Grab some people off the street and head to Hillsboro.

3. Has it been too long since you played with sledgehammers and bowling balls? Well, if that's the case head to the North Park Blocks on Sunday at Noon for the annual Mondo Croquet tournament and picnic. It's croquet but with sledgehammers and bowling balls. And lots of people dressed as if they were attending the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.

4. Looking to spend some time on the water? On Sunday head over to Cathedral Park for their annual Willamette River Festival. From Noon to 7:00 p.m. - live music, food carts, walking tours, live birds from the Audubon Society. Check out www.willametteriverfestival.or... for more information.

5. Looking for inspiration for your dream home? The NW Natural Street of Dreams gets underway this weekend. This year it features give homes, ranging from $3 million to $4 million and 5,000 to 6,0000 square feet. The location is at the top of Pete's Mountain in West Linn.
