The last moments of summer are here, and to be honest, I’m not mad that it’s supposed to rain next week. I am supposed to go camping, though, so the rain would really put a damper on that. On the other hand, I’m very ready to get my Dutch oven on the stove and make every soup I can think of.

In case you’re still trying to squeeze out a few more summer moments, I put together a list of rooftop bars that’ll be open for a little while longer.

But first, today’s giveaway! Enter to win tickets to see Family Worship Center with Les Gold at Mississippi Studios on Friday, September 4th at 8PM.

A BETTER VIEW OF HAPPY HOUR

Portland has no shortage of places to grab a drink, but sometimes the view is half the reason you’re going. From laid-back roof decks to downtown spots made for sunset, these are some of our favorite places to get above it all.
