Washington Baths

Imagine it is November in Portland. The days are getting shorter, and the air is getting colder. You leave work, it is dusk. You head over to Washington Ave to meet up with a couple of friends for a sauna.

As you walk through the front gate and courtyard you leave the concerns of the day behind. You are greeted by friendly, familiar faces and a warm floor as you remove your shoes and coat. In the locker room you turn off your phone and put it away.

You enter the sauna and climb to the top bench. The nip of the hot steam hits you. You instantly relax. The room is dim. You detect the faint smell of wood smoke. You hear a familiar hiss as water is poured over the hot stones. After 15 minutes you have worked up a good sweat.

You leave the sauna room and head to the open air courtyard in the middle of the building. You step outside and dunk your body into a pool of ice cold water. You re-emerge and feel instantly euphoric. You look up at the stars with a broad grin.

Back inside the lounge, you recline on a bench and chat with friends and strangers. You order a fresh juice, sparkling mineral water, and salty snack.
