    I bought what is probably a crappy little record player because I spend more time at home now and I…read morewas harkening back to a time when I listened to whole albums nonstop without skipping tracks (I'm looking at you: What's the Story (Morning Glory)?) and I had a sweet little domestic vision of playing a record while I cook dinner and having it sit on a table in my dining room. So I was thrilled when I searched used record stores (um, the new Lana Del Rey is a pre-order for $45[!!!!] and I don't see myself commiting in such a monumental way) and found this one in my neighborhood. Armed with the knowledge from a few YouTube videos, I knew how to handle a record (gently and without touching the grooved portions), how to avoid common pitfalls (mismatched UPC from record and covers for reissues, checking the album cover spine for drop damage, & that the most common scratch place is right at the beginning of track 1 where people drop the needle on the vinyl) along with what can be fixed at home (dusty dirt smudges and smears) and what can't (deeper scuffs, scratches, warping). Also learned (surprisingly) a sealed record does not necessarily mean mint condition, it could be warped or damaged despite being unopened. Not an expert yet but confident enough to at least go in to the store. I practiced first at Goodwill but their selection must get picked over by resellers right quick because it was stuff that shouldn't even be for sale. Crossroads was my 3rd stop. My understanding is that this is like an antique mall where there are many sellers using the space. When I got my receipt, he said fifty sellers, I think. This was confusing at first because I saw "rock" then proceeded to keep seeing "rock" in every row. It looked like anything valuable (maybe over $30-50) was kept up front but the covers are placeholders in the stacks. As far as covid compliance, people kept their distance and wore masks. I had a nice Friday off from work flipping thru the bins and found a few things I think I could see myself listening to: Some french pianist doing the Beatles mashed up with classical pieces, and a Charlie Parker quartet/quintet greatest hits (can't go wrong there). I spent $12 on the two and was told the receipt doesn't matter so much as the sticker because it links to the specific seller. My record player is shipping so I don't have it yet but I anticipate coming here with some regularity. I also followed one of the sellers on Facebook, it's "hamspapershack". I'm never gonna be a major collector or drop a ton of money, but I can see myself growing a modest collection of used records that I listen to on sunny afternoons, rainy reading days, or probably most often, making dinner. I'm glad Crossroads is hanging in! A few housekeeping details: they take payment cards and have a small parking area of about 3 spaces. I also heard a tip in my YouTube research that some/most record stores will have a turntable for you to try a record yourself- not sure if this is Rona Protocol or like this all the time, but this one didn't have a customer turntable that I saw.

    This is pretty large consignment style record store, there is a lot to go through, some organized…read moresome not so much. Prices seem fair and you can find some cool vinyl but you are gonna spend some time digging through crates on the ground, there is one listening station available and works and sounds good enough to sample what you find. If you are looking for techno house breaks, it's here but you will be digging to pull it out.

    Superb community bookstore. Great deck with beautiful views. Excellent assortment of books…read more Kid-friedbly bathroom. It's decorated beautifully and makes you wish you lived there. Cafe with light meals (soup/sandwich), pastry, coffee and tea plus beer on tap and wine. I wish there were a few more vegan options. They also have a lot of book clubs and other community events, including toddler play time every week.

    I met friends for a walk around Round Lake earlier this month and we followed with a refreshing…read moredrink and perused the books at Bookish. My friends live in the area and had told me about a delightful restaurant they both liked which turned into a cafe/bookshop. For years they set "Andie traps" for me as encouragement to move from the East Bay CA to the PNW. This was one of the places they baited me with and I was so delighted to get to experience it for myself with them as we just moved to Portland earlier this summer. The Bookish space is welcoming and adorable. If you think "there aren't too many books", you would be correct, but I'm a firm believer that quantity doesn't always win over quality when it comes to books. That is to say, you may not find a book that you're intentionally looking for, but there's a high probability an unexpected book is waiting to find you. There's a fabulous selection of books for just about every reader's tastes. The decor and arrangement is inviting and pleasing to the senses. There's space for events and classes and plenty of cozy seating around to enjoy your drink. We all enjoyed some iced chai on the back patio shaded by the trees overlooking Lacamas Lake. The folx working at Bookish are a freaking delight-- fun, warm, welcoming, and they craft delicious drinks. I can't wait to return with my friends and I also look forward to bringing my fam as we continue our exploration of our new home in the PNW!
