I'll be in Portland again this December to visit family.  I plan to get
over to Powell's again for an afternoon, somewhere in between my
sister-in-law's personal issues and my brother-in-law's bragging.

  I also visited Cody's several times in the 1970s-'80s.  :-(   Great loss. 


  And I totally agree with the assessment of Powell's.  I've been there
only one time,  in 2004(?) and spent hours and hours just cruising the
aisles.   It's huge, squat,  sprawling building with several tiers or
layers (what would you call them - mini-floors?) spread out over an entire
block and they have warehouses and other outlets throughout the city as
well as elsewhere in the area.  The rare books floor in the main Portland
store is awesome.  I'd really like to go back some time.
