I like shopping in Columbia (which has really great deals), Eddie Bauer, Rack Room Shoes, Kitchen Collection and some others. Nike, too. The parking lot is huge.

My family LOVES board games and we have a Christmas "Steal a Gift" game. I'm not into board games, so called my sister in Southern California and she talked with a staff member who described some of the games based on family favorites and told her what won "Game of the Year" for 2022 and 2023. She recommended two to me and I chose. I think my gift will be a hit at our Christmas game (2022 Game of the Year). They had tables set up in the rear, and there were quite a few people playing games. The other shops looked interesting, but we were on a time crunch since Modern Games didn't open until 11:00.

Here's the bottom line up front: Based on the name and some quick Googled bits (apparently TOO…read morequick), my wife and I headed to Old Mill District during a family trip in search of, well, something old and historic and cool. Those of you have been here... it's not that. I feel like maybe it was once the site of something old and historic, but now it's mostly just a modern series of fairly common brand shops and such, with some local flavor dropped in. Our main destination was Sisters Coffee, and that experience was great. Parking and navigation is tricky because the lots are spaced out and small, and some have only one way to get in and out. It's great if you want to walk, not so great driving. Bottom line, if you want history, look elsewhere. If you want to shop 'till you drop, this is the place.

I thought it'd be tougher to bike around but the trails are super smooth and a calm ride. The bikes were expensive looking and rode well. Biking around to the shops and back to our rental was relaxing and fun. We kept discovering wildlife while going over the biking trails. Deer, chipmunks, woodpeckers, etc. It was all a short leisurely ride. We'd stop, the boy would look for a few minutes, then off we go. Beyond the rental, while I was in the shop people were coming and going getting things fixed, questions answered, friendly advice on parts, and buying seats or locks. The employees were genuinely nice people and I hope that they continue to be successful.

Everyone here treated me like a king. The level of professionalism, friendliness, and kind gesture was unmatched. Flying around the country is a rewarding experience. My time in Bend was incredible, especially when I visited the Nike Store. No tax! Wait, what? No taxes on sneakers. Give me a few pairs haha :). If you're in the area, I highly recommend you make a stop here for an hour and carefully take time to walk the store. The sneaker selection here was unlike any other Nike store I visited outside the Seattle location. I was in awe during my time in-store. Next time I'm in the area, I'll make sure to stop by and say, "hello." 2025 & beyond.

The Gala consisted of a DJ , a raffle, and about 48 dollars worth of Costco: cookies, crackers, pre-cut cheese, pre-cut pineapple and whole strawberries. No goody bag full of samples, no fragrance reps handing out samples. No glasses or champagne or plates of fresh shrimp. No Amazing Deals of combination sets of product offered at super prices.... For the first time in years I missed Seattle. Seattle, with its luscious event, spanning a significant portion of the floor, dotted with helpful, eager reps quick to proffer a lipstick sample, a perfume miniature... We were met with some store employee wearing what could only be described as an aging stewardesses dress, all orange, shouting over the DJ, "All I need is your name and number!', referring to the raffle tickets available for all... not just those who had tickets in advance. Apparently, this 'Gala' amounted to no more than a 15% off fragrance and beauty. For anyone passing through. We think the staff here at this Macy's misses the point. Especially distrustful employee at the Sunglass Hut here, more concerned with the whereabouts of certain pairs of sunglasses, we later realized that she was concerned we were lifting them? , firing questions at her colleague (before assisting us with procuring the product we were asking for), 'Where are the round ones?! Did you move the others?! Where did you put those other ones?!' Good God. This female employee was so concerned we were there to steal, even though we wore the VIP wrist bands (yeah, ha ha.). Later, we realized she was peering into our shopping bags AFTER we bought two pairs of sunglasses from her... sheesh. This store location does not represent the brand. Abysmal service from store clerk at one register, excellent customer service from Customer Service representative at another.

When she presented the gift to me she was excited to tell me all about your company, which she was familiar with, until I read on the package that the socks were made in Taiwan (which was printed in tiny print in the corner). Which came as a HUGE shock to her. On top of that shock, we then looked at the materials list for the socks and found that they were only 31% wool the rest was synthetic fibers. She paid $19.50 for a pair of socks that she thought were authentic Pendleton wool socks! Your company should be ashamed of itself. This is very shady. Pendleton has built a long-standing reputation for American craftsmanship and high-quality wool products. Selling a product that is predominantly synthetic and manufactured overseas while trading on the heritage of the Pendleton name feels like a deliberate attempt to mislead loyal customers.
