Labor Day weekend is not only a time to reflect on the social and economic achievements of the hard working Americans of the past and present, but also to take a break and relax. So use this weekend to get some great quality time in with your family and friends.

Portland, Oregon has plenty of places for holiday weekend activities if you’re wanting to break away from the city life and breathe in some fresh air. Head out to Tryon Creek State Natural Area! There’s hiking trails, bike paths, equestrian paths, and you’ll even get some wildlife sightings if you’re watchful. On Labor Day itself, head out to Skidmore Bluffs, where you can get one of the best seats around to watch the beautiful sunset. It’s also well known for the beautiful views of the river and greenery surrounding it.

From all of us here at Linc 301, have a safe and fun Labor Day weekend!
