I Get Around...By Walking the Town

Since I've taking up a "new" hobby of walking pretty much anywhere I need to be in Portland and just for fun (it's relaxing and meditative), I decided to create a playlist on my iPod specifically designed for those times I just want to hit the road with my shoes for an extended period of time.
