If you're walking on a Saturday, take a right at NE Hancock St. and
browse the busy Hollywood Farmers Market (May-October), in the
parking lot between NE 44th and 45th Aves. It's one of the bigger and

Backtrack north (left) on NE 45th Ave. to return to Sandy. Continue

with a selection that consists mostly of used paperbacks.

known for being kid-friendly. If you don't happen to be kid-friendly
yourself, a tiny balcony upstairs enables you to hide out with your pint
and leave the Tater Tot set behind.
